[/ingredients]
1. In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa and water in a 1:2 ratio. Bring to a boil, stir and cover. Reduce to a simmer and cook until water has evaporated. (12-15 minutes). 2. In a small bowl, combine rice vinegar and agave. Add to the Suncore Foods® Quinoa Royal Rainbow Seeds and stir to combine. 3. Place a seaweed wrap on your sushi mat with the shiny side down. 4. Add about a half a cup of quinoa on top of the wrap. Spread evenly over the seaweed wrap, leaving about 5 cm at the top. 5. Place the filling ingredients on top of the quinoa at the bottom edge. 6. Using the mat, slowly start rolling the roll. Lift the mat a little and continue rolling until the end. 7. Using a wet chef’s knife, cut the sushi rolls into 1.5 cm thick pieces (I got 8 pieces from each roll). 8. Make the dressing: combine all the ingredients until smooth. Top with cilantro and spring onion. [/directions]
