Quinoa and Smoked Tofu Salad

I love this Quinoa and Smoked Tofu Salad, I bought 1 package smoked tofu a couple weeks ago, then found this recipe, it is really delicious, I added some basil instead of the mint, and I bought some purple bell pepper last Saturday, so I used purple pepper, they are awesome.
