INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup cooked quinoa (93g)
1/2 cup black beans (130g, rinsed)
3 oz grilled chicken breast (85g)
1/2 avocado (100g)
1/2 cup diced red bell pepper (75g)
1/4 cup diced red onion (40g)
1 tbsp fresh lime juice (15g)
1 tbsp chopped cilantro
PREPARATION
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions and let it cool slightly.
Grill the chicken breast until fully cooked, then slice it into bite-sized strips.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, diced red bell pepper, and red onion.
In a blender, add the avocado, lime juice, cilantro, a pinch of salt and pepper, and blend until smooth to create a creamy dressing. If the dressing is too thick, thin it out with a tablespoon of water.
Pour the avocado dressing over the salad and gently mix until all ingredients are evenly coated.
Top the salad with the sliced grilled chicken breast.
Garnish with extra cilantro if desired and serve immediately.
