- 1 cup quinoa dry
- 1 medium cucumber diced
- 2 roma tomatoes diced
- 1/2 red onion diced
- 1 small red pepper diced
- 6 oz feta cheese crumbled

Combine the quinoa and two cups of water in a medium saucepan over medium high heat until boiling. Reduce to a simmer, and continue cooking until all the water is absorbed, about 10 to 15 minutes.
After quinoa has cooled, combine with the veggies and feta.
Top with Greek Salad Dressing to taste (about half the original recipe makes for great flavor without being too much).
