Rinse quinoa thoroughly in cold water (this is required to avoid any bitter taste).
Bring ⅔ cup water and quinoa to a boil in saucepan. Reduce heat to a low simmer, cover and cook for 15-20 minutes until quinoa is fluffy and all the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes. Fluff the quinoa with a fork and transfer to bowl.
In a small bowl, combine sauce ingredients and mix.
Toss quinoa, veggies and sauce in a large bowl.
Top with sliced avocado or guac and serve warm or cold.
