Avocado, Pomegranate, and Quinoa Salad

Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups water

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

  2. Spread quinoa onto a baking sheet and cool to room temperature, at least 30 minutes.
  3. Transfer quinoa to a large bowl and gently fold in avocado and pomegranate seeds. Drizzle olive oil over quinoa mixture and toss to coat; mix in cilantro and lemon juice.
