INGREDIENTS
1 cup Black Beans (cooked)
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
150 grams Extra-Firm Tofu
1/8 Avocado
1/4 cup Corn
1/2 Red Bell Pepper
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lime Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse and drain the black beans if using canned.
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions and let it cool.
Cut extra-firm tofu into small cubes. Optionally, gently pan-sear tofu in a non-stick skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes to enhance texture.
Dice the red bell pepper and avocado, and measure out the corn.
In a large bowl, combine the black beans, quinoa, tofu cubes, corn, red bell pepper, and avocado.
Whisk together olive oil, lime juice, and chopped cilantro in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine all ingredients evenly.
Adjust seasoning as needed and serve at room temperature or chilled.
