  lemon juice after overnight refrigeration.


Cook quinoa according to basic directions.

In a large bowl, combine the quinoa, celery, carrots, scallions, and
parsley.  

In a jar, or with a food processor or blender, combine 1/2 cup olive
oil, 1/3 cup lemon juice, mustard, mint, and salt until well blended.
Pour over the quinoa mixture and toss to thoroughly coat the grains.
Taste and add more olive oil, lemon juice, or salt as needed. Serve
immediately or refrigerate until needed. Before serving, garnish with
tomatoes, if desired.
