Mediterranean Quinoa Salad
  1. Combine 2 ½ cups water and quinoa and bring to a simmer over high heat. Cover, reduce heat to low to maintain a simmer and cook until the quinoa is tender and absorbs all of the liquid, 15 to 20 minutes.

  2. Mash garlic with 1 teaspoon of the salt on a cutting board with the side of a chef’s knife. Scrape into a large bowl. Whisk in oil, lemon juice and the remaining ½ teaspoon salt.

  3. Add hot quinoa to the dressing and let cool, about 30 minutes.

  4. Stir in cucumber, parsley, tomatoes, mint, feta, olives and pine nuts. Chill or serve immediately.
