Fresh Quinoa and Black Bean Salad
Enjoy a vibrant and hearty salad bursting with fresh flavors. This dish combines fluffy quinoa, protein-packed black beans and tofu with crisp red bell pepper, tender chickpeas, and cooling cucumber, all tossed in a tangy lime and olive oil dressing, finished with a sprinkle of creamy feta cheese.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup cooked quinoa (92g)
1/2 cup black beans (130g)
1/4 cup chickpeas (40g)
150g extra-firm tofu
1 ounce feta cheese (28g)
1/2 cup diced red bell pepper (75g)
1/2 cup diced cucumber (50g)
1 tsp olive oil (5g)
1 tbsp fresh lime juice (15g)
PREPARATION
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions and allow it to cool completely.
Drain and rinse the black beans and chickpeas.
Press the extra-firm tofu between paper towels to remove excess moisture, then cut it into small cubes.
In a large bowl, combine the cooled quinoa, black beans, chickpeas, tofu, diced red bell pepper, and diced cucumber.
Crumble the feta cheese over the salad.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil and fresh lime juice to create a light dressing.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss to coat all ingredients evenly.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for an hour to meld the flavors.
