Ingredients:

Serving

1 (15 oz) can black beans
3 cups quinoa, cooked (about 1 cup uncooked makes 3 cups cooked !)
1 red pepper, chopped
1 red onion, minced
1/4 cup cilantro
3 tbsp lime juice
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp agave nectar (or some other natural sweetner)

salt & pepper

Directions:

Cook Quinoa as directed on package (I use Bob's red mill. 1 3/4 cup water and 1 cup dry Quinoa).
While Quinoa is cooking, place Cilantro, lime juice, red wine vinegar, agave, olive oil, salt and pepper in a blender or food processor and pulse.
Toss finished Quinoa in a large bowl with black beans, red pepper, and onion.
Pour cilantro lime vinaigrette over Quinoa salad and let marinate for atleast 30-45 minutes.
