Quinoa salad with baked fish

Quinoa is a great alternative to couscous or rice and makes a really healthy summer salad. It's light and packed full of herbs and lemon goes perfectly with fish. The fish in this recipe is so simple to prepare... and once you've eaten it there isn't any washing up as you simply throw the tin-foil away.
