Ingredients:

1 cup quinoa
200g shrimp
1 cup vegetables
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp garlic powder
¹⁄₂ tsp black pepper

Instructions

Rinse quinoa under cold water. Add to a saucepan with 2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12–15 minutes until water is absorbed. Remove from heat, let sit covered for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

Pat shrimp dry and season with garlic powder, black pepper, and a little olive oil. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and fully cooked.

Chop the cucumber, halve the cherry tomatoes, and slice the avocado.

Divide quinoa between bowls. Top with vegetables, avocado, and shrimp. Drizzle with olive oil and fresh lime juice, then serve immediately.
