Quinoa w/ Moroccan Salsa

I feel bad sometimes, with my specific diet, my mom doesn't always know what to cook for dinner, so she usually just, doesn't...lol.

But the other day I was pleasantly surprised when she made up this moroccan inspired salsa, vegan, gluten-free and definitely health-freak worthy.

I just put it on top of quinoa and it was very delicieux. She was happy to make dinner for once, and I was happy to eat it :)
