QUINOA SALAD WITH BLACK BEANS AND MANGO
From the cookbook Veganomicon, this is a tasty, healthy salad. Author Moskowitz says that with every bite of this dish, new flavors emerge: "Mango, scallions, cilantro, red peppers, you never know what you're gonna get." I am not a vegan, but made this for a vegan bridal shower. It was my first experience with quinoa, and I enjoyed it very much.

Number Of Ingredients 14
Steps:
- Place the quinoa and water in a medium skillet and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat, and simmer covered for about 15 minutes or till the quinoa is cooked. Remove the lid, and fluff the quinoa with a fork. Let it cool to room temperature. While the quinoa is cooking, combine the fruits in a bowl and refrigerate till you are ready to serve the salad. Whisk together all the dressing ingredients, except the chopped basil. Refrigerate till you are ready to serve. Chop and add the basil to the dressing just before serving. If you add it earlier, it will go black. Add half the dressing to the quinoa and mix gently. Assemble the salad just before serving - toss the quinoa, fruits and cucumbers together. Serve other half of the dressing on the side. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe mangoes. Look for mangoes that are slightly soft to the touch and have a sweet, fragrant smell.
- If you don't have any cooked quinoa on hand, you can cook it according to the package directions. Just be sure to let it cool completely before adding it to the salad.
- To make the salad more flavorful, you can add a variety of other ingredients, such as chopped red onion, cilantro, or mint.
- If you're looking for a vegan option, you can substitute olive oil for the honey in the dressing.
- This salad is best served fresh, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
