Quinoa Tomato Salad

Image of  Quinoa and Tomato Salad

I love cold quick salads on summer days. Here is a simple recipe we had on the weekend:

Quinoa Tomato Salad
2 servings

2 cups cooked quinoa*
20 grape tomatoes, diced
20 basil leaves, chopped
2 ounces crumbled feta cheese
1 T olive oil
1 T balsamic vinegar
Fresh ground black pepper to taste

Directions: Dice tomatoes, chop basil, crumble feta and mix in a bowl with cooked quinoa. Shake (or whisk) oil and vinegar and stir into the salad. Add black pepper to taste and mix the salad.

*How to cook qunioa perfectly (not quickly).
