Transfer quinoa to a colanderand rinse under cold running water. I've made this several times now, and the only change I've made to the original recipe is to double the ingredients for the salad dressing
Handful fresh cilantro, stemmed and chopped. Add in cilantro and stir. Ingredients1 cup dry quinoa. 1 can (15 ounces) blackbeans, drained. 1 teaspoon coriander. Directions1Cook quinoa according to package instructions and let cool for 15-20 minutes. 2In a large bowl, add quinoa, blackbeans, corn and spices. 1 cup dry quinoa. 1 teaspoon coriander
The blackbeans, quinoa, veggies and cheese give the filling a wonderful texture, and the creamy avocado lime sauce adds a satisfying decadence when you dig into these peppers
I originally found the recipe in a book I’ve had for a long time called Make It In Minutes, and when I first tried it, I was pleasantly surprised because I had another great salad to add to my repertoire
In Mike world, the more ingredients in a salad the better, so when I told him that I was making taco salad a) he got super excited because taco salad always has a minimum of too many ingredients and b) he figured out the quickest way to double the ingredient list by suggesting blackbean falafel
Blackbeansandquinoa seemed like the perfect combination. I cooked the quinoa separately and added it to the bean mixture at the last minute, but that left the quinoa too flavorless, and the beans too dried up
One of the dishes they served was a quinoasalad made with a corn andblackbean salsa. Usually that means simple salads involving quinoa, vinegar, oil, vegetables and herbs
Basically I took my favorite baked falafel recipe, tweaked the spices, added in some jalapeños, and of course, substituted blackbeans instead of chickpeas
) cans of blackbeans, rinsed and drained. Preheat your grill and remove husks from corn. Rub the ears with a small amount of vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper
