Steps

  1. Rinse the quinoa under cold water and drain.
  2. In a saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and brewed green tea. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the quinoa is fluffy and the liquid is absorbed.
  3. While the quinoa cooks, prepare your vegetables: halve the cherry tomatoes, dice the cucumber, and slice the avocado.
  4. In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and avocado.
  5. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Toss gently to combine and garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
