Curried Quinoa Salad With Cranberries

You can only find quinoa in healthstores here. And not all quinoa products are (yet) available. But OK, when I found this recipe I was glad I could make it. Be sure to rinse the quinoa before boiling it. If you can't find quinoa you can use either couscous or bulgur.
