Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Rinse Quinoa in cold water in a strainer. Bring chicken broth and garlic to a boil in a saucepan. Stir in quinoa, reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer until the quinoa is tender and the water has all been absorbed. As the quinoa cooks, the germ separates from the kernel, creating little white rings. When you see these rings, you know the grains are fully cooked.
  2. Place quinoa into bowl and cool. Gently stir in remaining vegetables and toss lightly. Drizzle with lemon juice, balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Stir until evenly mixed. Place extra Feta Cheese on top to garnish.
  3. Serve warm or refrigerate and serve cold.
