BLACK BEAN & QUINOA SALAD WITH CILANTRO LIME VINAIGRETTE

Black Bean & Quinoa Salad With Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette image

I got this Recipe from "Fed up" on the Veria channel, by Andrea Beaman. It's very easy and actually really tasty! I love it. So healthy too, tons of fiber, and truly a healthy dish. Very filling, I eat it for lunch sometimes by itself. WW friendly.. I use organic ingredients The only difference is, I don;t use meat in it when I make it, she used cooked chopped chicken. I prefer it without, as I usaually pair it with a WW spiced tilapia recipe I found here on Zaar, and goat cheese and scallion stuffed cherry tomatoes, asparagus, or some other veggie.. Yum

Tips:

Fresh ingredients: Use the freshest possible ingredients for the best flavor. This includes using fresh black beans, sweet corn, cilantro, and lime juice.
Don't overcook the black beans: Black beans should be cooked until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked black beans will be mushy and bland.
Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is a key ingredient in the lime-cilantro vinaigrette. Use a good quality olive oil that has a fruity flavor.
Don't be afraid to adjust the flavors: The lime-cilantro vinaigrette can be adjusted to taste. If you like a more tangy dressing, add more lime juice. If you like a more spicy dressing, add more chili powder.
Serve immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The flavors will meld together over time, but the salad will be at its best when the ingredients are still fresh and crisp.

Conclusion:

This black bean and sweet corn salad with lime-cilantro vinaigrette is a delicious and refreshing summer salad. It's perfect for potlucks, picnics, or a light lunch or dinner. The salad is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
