Hướng dẫn

To cook the quinoa: Combine the rinsed quinoa and the water in a medium saucepan.

Heat the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Uncover, cook until quinoa absorbs all water, 15 minutes, decreasing heat to a simmer. Stop cooking, cover, and let the quinoa fluff for 5 minutes.

Mix chickpeas, cucumber, bell pepper, onion, and parsley in a large basin. Set aside.

Mix olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, and salt in a small bowl. Mix well and keep aside.

Pour dressing over the quinoa in the serving bowl after it's mostly cool. Toss until well mixed. To taste, add black pepper and a touch of salt. Let the salad sit for 5–10 minutes before serving for optimum flavor.

This salad stays fresh for 4 days covered in the fridge. Serve chilled or room temperature.
