This is one of the best salads EVER!! I used less cucumber to keep it from getting watery, a little less quinoa and more onions (just a preference) and instead of water for the dressing, I squeezed in lime juice plus some zest. Can’t describe how good this is. Enjoy!!

I added juice of half a lime to the dressing and 1/4 c water first, to heat over the stove because my pb wouldn’t mix in well, then added an ice cube to cool it down. It was so fantastic. We kept all ingredients separate until eating time then assembled it ourselves and it wasn’t soupy at all.

Be sure to rinse your quinoa before cooking! Also, add dressing just before serving to prevent the salad from getting soggy.

Dice the red onion up really small or else it will really overpower your mouth. Or put less red onion all together... definitely not 2 servings. I would say closer to 3 or 4 servings.
