Quinoa and Vegetable Salad

Rinse the quinoa thoroughly under running water, then cook with a 1:2 ratio until done and let it cool.

Dice the cucumber and bell pepper into small cubes, halve the cherry tomatoes, and thinly slice the red onion into half-moons.

Combine the quinoa and prepared vegetables in a large mixing bowl.

Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.

Toss the salad gently to evenly distribute all the ingredients.
