This salad is packed with so many healthy additives its crazy! I found this recipe off of a cooking site and decided to try it. I made a HUGE batch and decided to munch on it for the rest of the week and pack some for Brandy's lunches as well.. it was a hit!
shopping list:
one frozen bag of shelled edamame
one frozen bag of corn
one cup of cooked quinoa ( it expands so it makes a lot!)
one red bell pepper diced
one small bunch of cilantro diced ( to taste.. I love cilantro so I added a lot)
two green onions diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
salt
dried thyme
chili powder
ground black pepper
dash of cayenne
Preparation:
briefly boil the edamame and corn until tender
drain and cool completely
in a large bowl combine the cooked quinoa, edamame, corn, cilantro, onions, and red pepper and mix
then in a small bowl whisk together the olive oil, lemon and lime juice, black pep, thyme, salt, chili powder, and cayenne until well combined. Drizzle over the salad and toss to coat.
chill for two hours and enjoy!
