Copycat Costco Quinoa Salad Recipe

Add the quinoa and 2 cups of water to a saucepan. Cook on medium-low until about half the water is absorbed. Stir occasionally. About 10 minutes.
1 cup quinoa
Then cover with a lid and take it off the heat. Leave it covered for 5-8 minutes.
In the meantime, wash and chop all the fresh ingredients. I like to chop everything into 1/8 inch cubes so you get a taste of everything in one bite.
1 Roma tomato, 1 mini cucumber, 1/2 red bell pepper, 1/2 green bell pepper, 1/4 cup cilantro
Next, make the dressing. Juice a lemon to get between 25–30 ml of juice.
1 lime juice
Add 2 tablespoons of avocado or extra virgin olive oil, followed by the spices. Stir well.
1/2 cumin, 2 tbsp avocado oil, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp ground black pepper, 1/4 tsp sugar
Once the quinoa has cooled, add the produce, top with the dressing and stir until well combined.
