Gluten Free Sweet Chilli and Edamame Quinoa

For a salad a little different and naturally gluten free, protein filled edamame with gorgeous sweet chilli sauce are a great combo to go with quinoa. Quinoa is a naturally gluten free grain but if preferred you could use gluten free cous cous instead. This quinoa salad has a thai style vibe to it and is great on a hot day.
