Steps
1. Rinse the quinoa under cold water, then cook according to package instructions (usually 2 parts water to 1 part quinoa).
2. While the quinoa is cooking, prepare the dressing by whisking together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
3. Once the quinoa is cooked, fluff it with a fork and let it cool slightly.
4. In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and half of the avocado (sliced).
5. Drizzle the dressing over the mixture and toss gently to combine.
6. Top with the remaining avocado slices and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy bowl!
