- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Cover quinoa with vegetable broth in an oven-proof saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cover the saucepan with aluminum foil.
- Bake in preheated oven until quinoa is dry and fluffy, about 15 minutes. Keep covered.

- Toss the mixture with the baked quinoa. Let cool, about 10 minutes. Season with salt.
