Avocado, Pomegranate, and Quinoa Salad Recipe

  • 1 3/4 cups water

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  1. Bring water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and water has been absorbed, about 12 to 15 minutes.
  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.
