Quinoa, Black Bean, & Mango Salad

I swapped the black beans with a tin of brown lentils and the mango with pomegranate - I thought this worked really well!

Mmm sounds delicious, Shannon, so glad it was enjoyed! 😊

Perfect recipe! Love it as a meal prep item—even better the next day. I just add avocado as I go. I may sub tomatoes for red pepper and add even more delicious dressing & mangoes next time.

Will definitely make this one many more times!! Such a great summer salad, thank you 🙏

I loved this recipe. Adventures with grains!

So good

Nice lunch, and easy to prep. So colourful :) No stalk onions on hand, so I switched them with red onion.

Fresh ingredients, filling and Really good!

Very tasty and simple to make, perfect for a busy day, loved it!

Very good and easy!

This was soooo delicious! My new fav go to! Colorful, tasty, and satisfying:)

Beautiful and delicious! Take care not to overcook your quinoa, as it can make the salad mushy (Oopsie), but it was still tasty!

We loved it for a quick sunday dinner.
Great recipe

I loooved the combination of the mango with the onions and the dressing! Black beans are nearly impossible to get where I‘m from so I used big white beans and edamame, still tasted well balanced 😊

Simple, quick and delicious. Can easily be meal prepped also. Mine looked a little different due to using red quinoa but oh, the flavour - perfect!! 😃

Thank you, Maria!

Love it, just wondering to swap red bell peppers with any other raw veggie like cucumber which would taste nice in its raw form, because red bell pepper taste sharp uncooked.

Hey Reshma, you can use cucumbers if you'd like 🤗

This is now a regular meal in our household. It's so delicious! I'm thinking of serving it tomorrow for some friends and I wonder if you can advise me on something it would go well with. I thought perhaps the chickpea breakfast tortilla.

Deliciously fresh. My husband likes it too. It also stores nicely for lunch on the go the next day.
