Trying new things and experimenting is always fun. She found this recipe in Allerhande magazine and couldn't wait to cook it. This salad was easy and fast to make, surprising in combination of ingredients and very tasty. Cook quinoa as per instructions on the packaging. Set aside and let cool off. Prepare wasabi mayonnaise simply by mixing and whisking all ingredients together, It should not be runny. Peel and cut grapefruit and pear. Mix together with fresh rocket and finely chopped mint leaves along with quinoa. Top up with the goat's cheese and garnish with wasabi mayonnaise. 
Bon Appetit!
