Rinse Quinoa in a fine mesh sieve until water runs clear, drain it, and transfer it to a medium pot.
Bring the Quinoa, salt, and water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until tender and most liquid has been absorbed in 15 to 20 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
Place in a bowl and add lemon juice, black pepper and olive oil. Set aside.
Add the cooked Quinoa, chickpeas, veggies, and mint leaves in a big mixing bowl. Add salt and pepper. Mix well, serve and enjoy
