1/2 cup chopped Red Bell Pepper
3 ounces Grilled Chicken Breast
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Fresh Lime Juice
2 tablespoons chopped Fresh Cilantro

PREPARATION
If not already cooked, prepare the quinoa according to package directions, then let cool.
Rinse and drain the black beans if using canned. Rinse and drain corn if using canned; if using frozen, thaw it beforehand.
Chop the red bell pepper and cilantro. Dice the grilled chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, corn kernels, chopped red bell pepper, and diced chicken.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lime juice, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and toss gently until all ingredients are evenly coated.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately, or chill briefly before serving for a refreshing twist.
