BLACK BEAN & QUINOA SALAD WITH CILANTRO LIME VINAIGRETTE
I got this Recipe from "Fed up" on the Veria channel, by Andrea Beaman. It's very easy and actually really tasty! I love it. So healthy too, tons of fiber, and truly a healthy dish. Very filling, I eat it for lunch sometimes by itself. WW friendly.. I use organic ingredients The only difference is, I don;t use meat in it when I make it, she used cooked chopped chicken. I prefer it without, as I usaually pair it with a WW spiced tilapia recipe I found here on Zaar, and goat cheese and scallion stuffed cherry tomatoes, asparagus, or some other veggie.. Yum

GRILLED CORN AND BLACK BEAN SALAD WITH CILANTRO VINAIGRETTE
I love veggie salads. They're great on their own or mixed into leafy green salads. This grilled corn salad pops with flavor and is rounded out by heartiness from black beans and creaminess from queso fresco cheese.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. On the other side of the stove place a grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the corn to the boiling water and cook until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the water and allow drain on a plate covered with paper towels.
- Once the grill is hot, brush the grill pan with oil and place the bell pepper and jalapeño on the pan. Grill the bell peppers until grill marks form, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Grill the jalapeño until marked on all sides, about 3 minutes.
- Brush the grill pan again with oil and place the dry ears of corn on the pan. Cook, turning the corn occasionally, until the kernels start to blacken on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to cool.
- When cool enough to handle, slice the kernels from the cobs and place in a large bowl. Chop the bell pepper and add it to the bowl. Remove the stem end and seeds from the grilled jalapeño, then finely chop it and add to the corn mixture. Add the black beans, onion and cilantro.
- For the vinaigrette: Combine the lime zest, lime juice, tomato, red onion, garlic, adobo sauce, cumin, coriander, salt and chili powder in a blender. Blend on high speed until almost smooth. Lower the speed to medium-low; with the motor running slowly drizzle in the oil. Turn off the blender, scrape the sides if needed and add the cilantro. Pulse a few times until the cilantro looks like small specks of green.
- Pour the vinaigrette over the vegetables in the bowl and toss. Taste and adjust any seasoning, adding more salt as needed. Sprinkle the salad with queso fresco just before serving.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe black beans. If using canned beans, rinse and drain them well before using.
- Be sure to chop the vegetables into uniform sizes so that they cook evenly.
- Don't overcook the vegetables. They should still have a bit of crunch to them.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the corn and zucchini in a grill pan over medium heat.
- For a more flavorful dressing, use freshly squeezed lime juice and chopped cilantro.
- Taste the dressing before adding it to the salad and adjust the seasonings as needed.
- Serve the salad immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
