Directions:
Combine cooked quinoa with beans, veggies and seasonings.

Blend cider vinegar with olive oil for dressing. This is a tart dressing, with a greater vinegar-to-oil ratio than most vinaigrettes. Dress salad to taste and let set for a few hours.

Quinoa has the highest protein of any grains. It can be found at specialty stores. Cook it with a ratio of 1 part quinoa to 2 parts water. It expands to about four times its size and can be used like rice.
