    This recipe was pretty much just what I was looking for. I would have appreciated if it said to cool the quinoa or not, but since I was in a hurry it might not have mattered. I tossed the hot quinoa with the cold ingredients and added spinach, and the kids liked it. - 8/14/13

    I don't really think it matters to the finished product if the quinoa is hot or cold. I have done it both ways, depending on if I was planning to eat it cold or hot.
