Quinoa is cooked once fluffy and tender. If still prepping, set aside with burner off. This will make more than you'll use for the recipe so you can save and use remaining quinoa for something else.

While the quinoa is cooking start chopping/shredding your veggies! Rinse and drain the beans.
-
Once everything is chopped add 1 1/2 cups of the cooked quinoa into a large bowl. Add the chopped veggies - bell pepper, kale, carrots, tomatoes, cabbage, cilantro and almonds. Add beans, feta cheese, lime juice, apple cider vinegar and spices.

Season to taste! Want more spice or citrus flavor? Add more to your taste preference!
-
Mix everything together and serve with sliced avocado on top. This is great for meal prepping and eating throughout the week. Enjoy!
