Mediterranean Quinoa Tuna Salad

Ingredients

1 cup of quinoa

¾ cup of tuna

1 avocado

1 cucumber

½ cup of cherry tomatoes

1 tablespoon of lemon

A pinch of cilantro

Method

  1. Cut the cucumber, onion, avocado and tomatoes into slices and add them in a bowl.
  2. Add salt, lemon juice and olive oil in the bowl.
  3. Wash the quinoa in cold water. Put the quinoa in a saucepan and fill the saucepan with 1 ½ cup of water. You can replace the water with vegetable broth to give it more flavors.
