Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 2 cups water or vegetable broth
  • 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 cup bell peppers, diced

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Rinse quinoa under cold water. In a saucepan, combine quinoa and water or broth, bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
