1
Prepare quinoa according to package directions. Meanwhile, dice the shallot and chop the tomatoes and mini bell peppers. Dice the avocado, zest and juice the limes, and chop the cilantro. Transfer shallot, tomatoes, bell peppers, avocado, lime zest and juice, and olive oil to a large bowl.

If you can’t get your hands on any mini bell peppers, substitute with two regular-sized bell peppers: 1 red, and 1 either yellow or orange.
