Cilantro Lime Quinoa Salad

1 cup quinoa, rinsed in strainer
fresh lime juice
cilantro
olive oil
salt

lettuce or spinach
avacado, diced or sliced
green peppers, diced
diced tomatoes
black beans

Rinse quinoa well under running water (to get rid of funny taste/scent). Pour rinsed quinoa into 2 cups boiling water then reduce heat to medium. Cook about 10 minutes and then turn off the heat and let it sit. When you turn off the heat it might look oatmeally, but give it 15+ minutes and it will become light and fluffy. Transfer Quinoa to a large bowl.

Add chopped cilantro. Squeeze fresh lime into quinoa mixture (I usually use one lime). Add salt and olive oil to taste. The rest of the ingredients can be thrown into quinoa
