First, prepare quinoa by placing quinoa and water into a medium-sized pot. Bring quinoa to a boil over medium-high heat and then turn the burner down to low, cover, and let simmer for 15 minutes or until water has absorbed. Remove from heat and let cool for 15 minutes before placing in the refrigerator to chill.
