Salad:

  • 1/2 cup quinoa

  • 1 pinch sea salt

  • 1 1/2 cup canned black beans, rinsed

  • 1 cup corn, rinsed, steamed, and cooled

  2. Meanwhile, prepare the rest of the salad. Whisk dressing ingredients together and set aside. In a large bowl, combine black beans, corn, diced bell pepper, and chopped cilantro.
