Method
Preparing the Quinoa
- 1
Cook the Quinoa
Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of quinoa with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes.

Fry the Eggs
In a non-stick skillet, heat a little oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny, about 2-3 minutes for sunnyside-up eggs.
Preparing the Salad

Mix the Salad
In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and diced avocado. Drizzle with lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Toss gently to combine.
