Tuna and Quinoa Salad

Yes, this is the Labor Day weekend but that doesn't mean we want to be working hard in the kitchen.  I think this salad is filling, nutritious and can be put together with very little effort.
 
Serve this for lunch and  you'll be  free to enjoy the fun activities with your family and friends.
