Method

Preparation of Grains

  1. 1

    Cook the Quinoa

    Rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa with 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low and cover. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until the quinoa is fluffy and the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

Chopping Vegetables

    While the quinoa is cooking, wash and chop the vegetables. Halve the cherry tomatoes, dice the cucumber and bell pepper, and slice the avocado. Set aside in a bowl for assembly.
