BLACK BEAN & CORN QUINOA
Some vegan quinoa recipes are boring, but this one definitely isn't. My daughter's college asked parents for the best quinoa recipes to use in the dining halls. This healthy quinoa recipe fits the bill. -Lindsay McSweeney, Winchester, Massachusetts

QUINOA AND BLACK BEAN BLISS
This is so easy and fast to make, and tastes amazing! Even my carnivorous boyfriend loves it. Serve cold as a mid-day salad, as a side dish, or serve warm as the main course. The thing I love most about this meal is its versatility. This is how I usually make it, but I just came up with it one day when wanting a quinoa, black bean, and corn recipe. Feel free to change to suit your preferences! I make it cheater-style with salsa, but it can easily be made with fresh or cooked veggies of your choice. It can be a cool summer salad, or a hearty warm winter dinner by the fire. This is the first of my recipes that I have shared.
