Quinoa, Lima Bean and Beet Salad

 

 

This is not really a recipe. This is intuitive. You toss it together to please your taste buds and give your tummy that happy, satisfied feeling. And we love that to be easy, right?

This salad was inspired by “Oh my gosh, Robert is here and I want to feed him something delicious and he is totally vegan.”  And it turns out that everyone loves this salad.

Ingredients


1 cup of cooked quinoa (red or black)  *Easy recipe

10 oz of cooked and cooled lima beans

Chopped cooked beets. I used fresh, however you could use canned. Be sure to drain them really well.

2 T Sesame Seed Oil.

Rice vinegar to taste

a  pinch of sugar

This salad is beautiful.

Mix Sesame seed oil and rice vinegar in the bottom of the bowl.

Add lima beans and quinoa.

Garnish top with beets.

Day 2. Mix leftover bean salad with fresh greens. You may want to add more sesame seed oil and rice vinegar.  Yummy!

The easiest way to cook quinoa:

Rinse one cup of red or black quinoa.

Put in a saucepan and add 2 cups of water and bring to a boil.

Put on a lid and turn the stove off.

The quinoa will be perfect in about twenty minutes.

Quinoa is really handy to have in your refrigerator. It is a complete protein which you can easily add it to many things. I enjoy it beneath a fried egg, with a little cottage cheese in the morning.

Get Your Quinoa On!

Get Your Quinoa On!

Quinoa is delicious, easier to make than rice, and a complete protein! Gluten free, quinoa is not really a grain, but a seed. The Inca Indians fed it to their warriors in the spring to increase endurance and spiritual awareness.

I know you want that so here is how easy it is: Rinse 1 cup of quinoa  (red is my favorite)

Throw into a sauce pan and add two cups of water.

Bring to a boil. Let it boil for a minute. Put on a lid.

Turn of the stove and in about 15 minutes it will be perfect.

Have some peas left over from last night’s dinner? Scoop out some quinoa, add the peas and douse with a little olive oil, freshly squeezed lemon and a little salt and pepper and toss!

Olive oil, lemon and quinoa are a happy trio.

Create your own lunch heaven: add avocado and tomatoes or lima beans, or black beans and cumin.
