Method:
Wash the Quinoa thouroughly. Cook quinoa , like Rice , in rice cooker. Cool and set aside.

Boil the lentils and Moong separately on stove, for 10 minutes. Drain away excess water and cool.

Dice the onion, peppers into small pieces. Toss the diced mixture, in a mixing bowl, along with vinegar and Oilive oil. Now add the cooked and cooled, lentils, moong and quinoa. Add salt to taste.
