While the quinoa cooks, prepare the vegetables. Dice the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red bell pepper into bite-sized pieces. Finely chop the red onion and fresh parsley.
3
In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and olive oil. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
4
Add the cooled quinoa, chopped cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, red onion, rinsed chickpeas, and fresh spinach to the bowl with the dressing. Gently toss everything together until well combined.
5
Stir in the fresh parsley. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve immediately or chill for later.
