1 1/2 cups quinoa
3 cups water
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 Red bell pepper, chopped
1/2 cup Green onions, chopped
1/2 cup Cucumber, chopped
1/2 cup Celery chopped
1 2 ounce jar chopped pimiento

INSTRUCTIONS

Rinse the quinoa well before cooking to remove the slightly bitter coating. Place the quinoa and water in a sauce pan, bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat, simmer over low heat for about 15 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed.

Combine the chopped vegetables in a bowl, including the fresh chopped herb of your choice. Mix well. Add the cooked quinoa. Toss gently and add the dressing. Toss again and add the pepper. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours.
