I recommend cooling the quinoa in the fridge to avoid excess water in the salad.

Taste the salad and add more oil, lemon, tomatoes or salt and pepper until it's perfect for your taste buds!
Notes
I like making this salad when I have left over quinoa in the fridge.
When cooking any type of grain, cook more than you need so you always have extra in your fridge to use in dishes like this one.
