- 2
Boil the quinoa for 12 minutes, drain, and cool on a wide tray for 8 minutes.
12 min12:00 - 3
Dice the avocado and mix it with half of the lime juice so it does not darken.
- 4
Toss the cooled quinoa, choclo corn, avocado, remaining lime juice, cilantro, and salt in a wide bowl.
- 5
Rest the salad in the refrigerator for 5 minutes so the quinoa absorbs the lime juice.
5 min05:00 - 6
Serve cold, turning it lightly one last time so the avocado does not get mashed.
💡 Tip: Rinsing quinoa in a sieve prevents a bitter taste after cooking.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve cold with lime wedges.
