Suggest a better descriptionDirections:
1. Rinse quinoa and cook according to package instructions. Set aside and let cool completely.
2. Prep salad fillings (except avocado, as it will brown if sliced too early}. Drain and rinse corn and
black beans. Rinse and half tomatoes. Dice red onion, refrigerate extra. Chop cilantro. Use more
or less cilantro depending on your preference.
3. Make salad dressing. Remove membranes and seeds from chipotle chile, and mince as finely as
possible. Place in bowl with all other ingredients, and whisk until fully combined. Taste to make
sure seasonings don't need adjusting. Pour into salad dressing container or jam jar with lid. Shake
vigorously before pouring as chiles and spices will settle.
4. When quinoa is cool, add all other ingredients and toss to combine. Chill until ready to serve. Chop
an avocado right before serving (toss with salad if you expect all to be consumed, otherwise place
directly on plates or as an option on the table, as they will brown if refrigerated with leftovers}.
Serve with the vinaigrette. Enjoy!
