Let’s make it
- 01
Rinse quinoa and place in a saucepan with water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer on low for 15 minutes. Rest off heat for 5 minutes.
- 02
Fluff with a fork and let cool slightly. Drain and rinse chickpeas; chop cucumber and tomatoes.
- 03
Divide quinoa, chickpeas, and vegetables among bowls. Whisk oil and lemon juice, drizzle over bowls, and finish with avocado.
A little kitchen wisdom
Let quinoa stand covered after cooking so the grains separate easily. Dress while still slightly warm for more flavor.
Make it your own
Swap quinoa for cooked brown rice, or chickpeas for cooked white beans. Add feta only if dairy is suitable for your diet.
Storage & leftovers
Refrigerate in a sealed container within 2 hours and use within 3 days. Reheat cooked leftovers to 165°F (74°C).
