Hydrating Cucumber-Mint Quinoa Salad

Light, refreshing, and full of plant-powered energy. Cucumbers cool the body, mint awakens the senses, and quinoa gives steady fuel without feeling heavy.

Juice of 1 lemon

2 tablespoons olive oil

Drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil. Toss gently, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
