Today's recipe is a side dish, quinoa lime salad. It is really yummy! A side might not seem so WOW to some but think of your typical side dishes...macaroni salad...potato salad...colesaw...nothing that healthy about those. This is so light and yummy. I make a lot and take it in for lunch during the work week.
These are more or less estimate for the ingredients...
quinoa
1 can of black beans
1 red pepper
1 red onion
cilantro
garlic
cumin
jalpeno
2 limes
Cook the quinoa. In a large bowl put in the drained and rinsed black beans. Chop the red pepper and red onion. Add to the beans. Chop cilantro and also add. Chop the jalepeno (add as much as heat you want to taste). Stir in the quinoa. Add the olive oil, garlic, and cumin and stir. Add the juice of the lime and the zest of 1 of the limes. Mix...chill...serve...enjo
