Cook the quinoa in salted water according to the package instructions. Allow to cool completely.
Steam the broccoli for 5-7 minutes, until tender-crisp. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking process and maintain its vibrant green color.
Wash the bell pepper and cucumber, then dice them into small cubes. Mince the garlic and whisk together with the olive oil and lemon juice to create the dressing.
In a large salad bowl, combine the quinoa, broccoli, bell pepper, and cucumber. Add the fresh parsley.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Allow the salad to chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before serving, to allow the flavors to meld.
