Instructions
Step 1 : Cook Quinoa - cook the perfectly fluffy quinoa either on the stove top following the directions on the package on the stove top or if you are like me who like to cook a big batch of quinoa to make several salads through out the week then cook the perfect quinoa in your Instant Pots (Instant Pot Quinoa recipe here).
Step 2 : Prep the ingredients - While the Quinoa is cooking, chop the onions, tomatoes, peppers, cilantro and squeeze some fresh lime juice.
