Directions
- Boil quinoa until cooked and let cool. Quinoa is cooked like rice so it’s very simple and extremely healthy and a super ancient grain. Once cooled fluff it with a fork to loosen it up.
- Place it in a large bowl and drizzle it with olive oil. Place in all your veggies and crumbled feta cheese and wet it with red wine vinegar, about 1/3 cup. Add pepper and salt to taste. I add a little more salt as quinoa can take it. Fold the mixture with a large spoon or spatula and then cover and place in the fridge uncovered for 1-2 hours.
- Serve with any grilled meat IE. lamb. Also could be used as a main dish for a warm summer day.
- Great, very healthy snack. It lasts about three days in the fridge.
