Directions

Bring the vegetable broth to a simmer in a small saucepan, then add 1/4 tsp salt. Stir in the quino and simmer, covered, until all the liquid has been absorbed and the grains are partially translucent, about 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and add the olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, another 1/2 tsp salt and plenty of pepper. Toss, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
