For best results, make the quinoa the day before and have it chilled in the refrigerator.

2 cups cooked quinoa, fridge-cooled
2 bunches parsley, washed and patted dry
4 Persian cucumbers
½ cup pine nuts
1 jar Kalamata olives
1 cup cherry tomatoes
¼ cup pomegranate seeds
2 lemons
Olive oil, to drizzle
Finely chop the Persian cucumber, cherry tomatoes, olives and parsley.
Add to the cold quinoa and toss. Add the pine nuts, pomegranate seeds, and toss again.
Finish with lemon juice, olive oil and more salt to taste.
