Vegetable and Quinoa Salad: This quinoa salad is protein-rich and full of fiber, as well as colorful and full of flavor. It's a perfect dish for a light lunch or to accompany dinner.

Ingredients:

1 cup of quinoa
2 cups of water
1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons of lemon juice
1 small cucumber, diced
2 medium tomatoes, diced
1 carrot, grated
1/2 cup of chopped cilantro or parsley
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions:

Rinse the quinoa in cold water for a few minutes. In a medium saucepan, add the quinoa and water. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is soft.

While the quinoa is cooking, in a large bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, cucumber, tomatoes, carrot, and cilantro or parsley.

When the quinoa is ready, let it cool a bit then add it to the bowl with the other ingredients. Mix well and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
