I made this for lunch today.  Packed with protein and vitamins, this is a gluten free black bean, corn and quinoa salad.

Ingredients:

1 can black beans, rinsed

1 can corn, rinsed

1.5 cups cooked quinoa (don't forget to rinse quinoa before you cook it - 1 cup quinoa into 2 cups water)

1/2 green, yellow and orange bell pepper, chopped

cilantro, chopped, to taste (I love cilantro so I put a lot into my salad)

Juice of 4 small limes

2-3 TBSP olive oil

1 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp garlic powder

salt and pepper to taste

Avocado

Directions : Mix the first five ingredients together in a bowl.  In a separate cup mix together lime juice, olive oil and spices.  Pour over salad.  Serve topped with avocado and more cilantro if you like.
