Serves 4 | Prep Time: 5 Minutes | Cook Time: 20 Minutes | Dairy-Free, Nut-Free, Gluten-Free, Vegan

Need a light side for a Mediterranean meal? This quinoa salad has you covered. With red bell pepper, onion, cucumber, and mint, it’s a refreshing grain dish that also works well as a healthy take-to-work lunch.

Instructions:

1. In a medium saucepan, bring the vegetable broth to a boil.

2. Add the quinoa, cover, and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed.

3. In a medium bowl, combine the quinoa, bell pepper, onion, cucumber, mint, lime juice, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, and mix well.

4. Divide the salad evenly among 4 airtight storage containers and seal.

Refrigerate: Store the airtight containers in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days.

Bulking: Top this grain salad with diced chicken or steak to make it more filling and add extra protein.
