Hi folks,
I'm very excited to share my favorite recipe for quinoa salad! This salad is fresh, has great flavor, and makes you feel fantastic! Here is the list of ingredients:
1 cup quinoa, cooked
1 15 oz can of black beans, rinsed
2 medium tomatoes, seeds removed and chopped
1/2 red onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
2 or 3 green onions, chopped
1/3 to 1/2 bunch of cilantro, chopped
1/2 cup olive oil
~ 1/4 cup lime juice
~ 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Mix all of the ingredients together in one bowl and then chill in the fridge.
I find it very easy to cook the quinoa in a rice cooker using 1 1/2 cups of water for 1 cup of quinoa. For the veggies, the amounts I have listed are a starting point, and I often add more or less depending on what I have and how I'm feeling. I always add A LOT of cilantro because I love it, so I would suggest adding the cilantro to taste if it isn't your favorite.
I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do! Please, don't forget to watch the video and subscribe to the youtube channel. More coming soon!
Thanks!
