This incredibly flavorful Mediterranean quinoa salad makes a great lunch! It can be made ahead of time and packed in small containers ready to take to school or work. It can also be served as a side dish for dinner along with baked fish or roasted chicken. Cook a large batch of Basic Chickpeas on the weekend to make this recipe!
