Human: Can you tell me how to prepare a good quinoa salad? Assistant: 
To make a good quinoa salad, start by soaking the quinoa in water for about 15 minutes. Once it's done soaking, rinse it off and drain it. Then cook the quinoa according to your desired consistency. For example, if you want it to be crunchy, then cook it like rice. If you want it to be soft, then cook it like a grain. After cooking, add in any vegetables of your choice such as bell peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, and other herbs and spices. Lastly, top with your favorite dressing or sauce. Enjoy!
