Cook the quinoa according to package directions. Let cool completely then season with salt and pepper. (You can stick it in the fridge for a little while to speed it up if needed.)
Meanwhile, prepare the rest of the salad ingredients. (I recommend waiting to chop the basil until you are ready to use it.)
To make the dressing, add all of the vinaigrette ingredients to a small jar or container with a tight-fitting lid. Shake well to combine.
Combine the cooled quinoa, tomatoes, mozzarella and basil. Pour the dressing over the salad and mix well. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve immediately.
