Instructions
Bring quinoa and water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes until water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and let cool.
Tip: Spread the cooked quinoa on a sheet pan to cool faster. Warm quinoa will wilt the vegetables.
Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper for the dressing.
In a large bowl, combine the cooled quinoa, cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, olives, parsley, and mint.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Top with crumbled feta. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
