For a richer flavor, toast the quinoa in a dry pan for a few minutes before adding the olive oil. Feel free to substitute other vegetables based on your preference and what's in season. Bell peppers, carrots, or broccoli would all be great additions. Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end for a bright and zesty finish.
