So tonight was my night to cook dinner again and I had to share. This past weekend I was at the store, and I ended up picking up brown rice and quinoa, to be a bit more healthy and add some variety to our meals. Tonight for dinner I decided to make a quinoa and bean salad. I used the white quinoa, because it was what was at the store. Yes, it's served cold. So, here it is:
Cook 1 cup quinoa according to box directions, put aside in fridge for 2 hours.
Chop up 2 oz of red peppers, green peppers, purple onion and black olives each, set aside.
Drain and rinse a can of red kidney beans, white kidney beans and black beans.
Drain one can of diced tomatoes.
After the two hours, mix all ingredients together.
Add in 1/4 cup of Zesty Italian Dressing, stir well.
Put it in the fridge for about one hour.
My yummy water is just one lemon and one full glass of sparkling water.
