Shrimp Quinoa with a Lemon & Dill Dressing with foodhaus

Summertime is in full swing. The last thing I want to do is stand in a kitchen the whole day. So this summertime quinoa salad is great. I made the shrimp in the oven, but you can also grill the shrimp on a barbecue if you wish – in which case, boil the peas and add them to the quinoa. By way of update: I am half way through updating the website, and I received some news about the cookbook, which will be out in bookstores in the US and online in the US for those of who have asked. I have been busy the last two weeks finalizing the draft, retesting recipes and just enjoying summer! Hope you are having a wonderful summertime so far. I will be back on Instagram more regularly come beginning of September – until then, I will be eating salads like these on my patio!
