To prepare uncooked quinoa, rinse quinoa with cold water in a fine sieve and add to a pot.  Add water and bring to a boil.  Cover and reduce to a simmer.  Cook for 15 minutes or until all liquid is absorbed, stirring occasionally.  Fluff with a fork.

In a medium bowl, add cooked quinoa, turmeric, juice, zest, and salt and blend to combine.  Fold in basil and serve.
