1/4 cup chickpeas (41g)
3/4 cup firm tofu diced (189g)

PREPARATION
In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lemon juice, olive oil, ground cumin, and a pinch of salt and pepper to create the dressing.
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked.
Drain and rinse the black beans, kidney beans, and chickpeas if using canned varieties.
Dice the firm tofu into small cubes and, if desired, lightly sauté in a non-stick pan for 3-4 minutes to enhance texture.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, beans, diced tofu, red bell pepper, and baby spinach.
Drizzle the dressing evenly over the mixture and toss gently to combine all the flavors.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed before serving.
