Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 2 cups quinoa cooked
- 1/2 cup red bell pepper
- 1 1/2 cups black beans drained
- 1 cup mango diced
- salt and ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup homemade vinaigrette
- Parsley for garnishing
Instructions
- Place the cooked quinoa in a large bowl and add bell pepper, black beans, mango, salt and ground black pepper.
- Pour the homemade vinaigrette dressing over the quinoa salad and stir to combine.
- Garnish with parsley before serving.
- This salad is good served at room temperature or chilled.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- Remember to rinse the quinoa before cooking so they don't taste bitter.
- Try to dice the mango into small pieces so you can get the perfect mouthful with each bite.
- You can thaw frozen mango if you do not have fresh mango.
- To store: I recommend not adding the dressing to the salad if you plan on storing it in the fridge as it can get soggy. This salad lasts for up to 4 days in the fridge when stored separately.
