Black Bean Quinoa Salad
Time: No idea, I made it up on the fly as I went
1 cup dry quinoa (red or regular)
2 cups water or broth (for cooking the Quinoa)
1 avocado, chunked
1 medium tomato, chunked
1/2 medium onion, chunked (or 1 bunch green onions, sliced)
handful of cilantro leaves
1 can (or 2 cups home=cooked) black beans, rinsed/drained
toasted or crispy nuts (optional, it was good without it -I prefer cashews, but almonds were good too) - handful or 2.
dressing:
olive oil
cilantro
lime juice
salt/pepper
Cook Quinoa however you like (we have enjoyed using our rice cooker)
Combine rest of ingredients (we sprinkle the nuts on each individual serving)
mix dressing together
toss salad with dressing
salt/pepper to taste.
