- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- 2 radish red
- 1 avocado sliced
- lemon juice
- 1/2 cup chickpeas canned
- 1 cup mixed salad

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the quinoa and water in a medium pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes until cooked. Remove the pot from the heat and let it sit for 5 minutes.
