INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa (92g)
1/2 cup Black Beans (130g)
3 ounces Grilled Chicken Breast (85g)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes, halved (75g)
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper, diced (75g)

2 tbsp Lime Juice

PREPARATION
Prepare and cook quinoa as per package instructions if not already cooked, then allow it to cool.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper and grill over medium heat until cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, slice into bite-sized pieces.
Drain and rinse black beans if using canned, and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled quinoa, black beans, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, and red onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Top the salad with sliced grilled chicken pieces and serve immediately or chill for later.
