Chipotle Mango Quinoa Salad

Ingredients

  • 1 cup quinoa, rinsed

  • 2 cups vegetable broth

  • 1 ripe mango, diced

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 1 avocado, diced

  • 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed

  • ½ cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)

  • ¼ red onion, finely chopped

  • 1 bell pepper (any color), diced

  • 2 tablespoons chipotle mango rub

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons lime juice

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Directions

  1. Cook the Quinoa: In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the quinoa is fluffy and the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it cool.

  2. Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, chipotle mango spice blend, salt, and pepper until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  3. Assemble the Salad: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled quinoa, diced mango, cherry tomatoes, avocado, black beans, corn, red onion, and bell pepper.

  4. Add the Dressing: Pour the dressing over the quinoa mixture and gently toss until all the ingredients are evenly coated.

  5. Garnish and Serve: Transfer the salad to a serving bowl. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve at room temperature or chilled.
