Method

  • Prepare quinoa according to package direction. I always bring my water to a boil (1 3/4 cup), add quinoa, then let it simmer for about 10 minutes, until all water is absorbed.
  • While quinoa is cooking, go into a chopping frenzy. Chop all your veggies (zucchini, onion, tomatoes, jalepeno, peppers, cilantro) and add them to a large bowl. Remove kernels of corn from the cob and add to the veggie bowl.
  • Once quinoa is finished, add cooked quinoa to the veggie bowl. Stir together. Add in lime and lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, and all spices. Adjust spices to taste.
