Quinoa: You could really use any type of quinoa, but to let the colors of the veggies pop I like to use plain white quinoa. Basil: Even in the dead of winter, I love the bright fresh burst of flavor fresh basil give different dishes and salads. If you can't find fresh basil in your supermarket, you can swap out Italian flat-leaf parsley. Slice baby carrots and mushrooms in half (if not already cut).

Instructions to make Quinoa and vegetables salad recipe:
  1. In a pan pour ¼ cup of Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain, ½ chopped red onion, ½ chopped red pepper, ½ chopped zucchini and 2 chopped carrots. Sauté the mixture and add a little salt. Mix together and set the mixture aside.
  2. In a pot, pour ½ cup of pre-washed quinoa and cover with water. Tip: When you wash the quinoa, let it sit for 2 minutes under cold water and drain it.
  3. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, until all the water is absorbed. Turn off the heat and leave the quinoa covered for 5 more minutes.
  4. While the quinoa is cooking, add a cup of halved cherry tomatoes, ½ cup of goat cheese, ½ cup of walnuts and a small spoonful of cumin seeds to the sautéed vegetables. Mix together.
  5. Once cold, stir the quinoa with a fork and season it with a little salt, the juice of ½ lemon and a tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain.
