Human: Can you tell me what is the best way to prepare a quinoa salad? Assistant: 
The best way to prepare a quinoa salad is by first soaking the quinoa in water for at least 15 minutes, then rinsing it several times until the water runs clear. Then cook the quinoa according to package instructions and let cool. Once cooled, add in your desired vegetables, nuts, seeds, herbs, and other ingredients of choice. Finally, top with your favorite dressing or seasonings and enjoy!
