- 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth or water
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 medium cucumber, diced
- 1 bell pepper (any colour), diced

Dressing:

Instructions:
Cook the Quinoa
- In a medium saucepan, combine the quinoa and vegetable broth or water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, covering the pan. Let it cook for about 15 minutes, or until the quinoa is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
- In a large bowl, arrange the cooked quinoa as the base. Add the spinach or mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, and avocado slices around the bowl.
- Place the Cooked Atlantic Lobster Meat on top, along with a sprinkle of fresh herbs for added brightness and flavour.
- Drizzle the dressing over the bowl just before serving. Add a lemon wedge on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
