In nonstick skillet, heat 1 tsp of the sesame oil over medium heat; cook light parts of green onions, the ginger and garlic, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in quinoa and salt; cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.

Divide quinoa mixture among serving bowls. Top with salmon, avocado, red pepper, cucumber, dark parts of green onions and the sesame seeds.
