Quinoa with Cucumber, Tomatoes and Lemon Vinaigrette

This was an experiment that turn out quite well one night.  This is a little different than tabbouleh because I used quinoa and there is no mint and no green onions and I didn't peel the tomatoes or cucumbers.  You can experiment with the flavors that you like.
