20 Min 

• 1 ½ lb Red Tomatoes, diced
• 1 cup Quinoa
• 2 cups Water
• ¼ cup Olive Oil

Bring quinoa and water to boil in saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 10 to 15 minutes, until quinoa is tender and water has been absorbed. Set aside to cool.

Whisk together olive oil, lime juice, cumin, 1 tsp lime zest, 1 teaspoon sea salt, and red pepper flakes.

Combine quinoa, tomatoes, scallions, and carrot, if using. Pour dressing over mixture; toss to coat. Stir in cilantro; season with sea salt and black pepper, to taste. Serve immediately.
