This quinoa black bean salad is high in protein as well, since quinoa and black bean are rich sources of protein.

Many quinoa salad recipes with black beans includes corn, avocado etc but this is a more easy quinoa black bean salad without corn or avocado (you can add them too if you wish) but this is very delicious as well even without the corn or avocado.

Quinoa black bean salad is one of my favorite salads which I actually love to eat.

I am not a salad person and usually enjoys salads as sides or snacks, but do not really enjoy many salads as a main dish (though I have some simple, easy and yummy salads in this blog which I enjoy).

However, this quinoa salad with black beans, cilantro leaves, tomatoes, onions etc is an exception. I like to enjoy this as a main dish for lunch or dinner as it is so much filling, delicious and healthy as well.
