Jackson and I were invited to the Minnesota Arboretum for a playdate, but around his dinner time. I figured this would be perfect meal to travel with and eat as we picnicked and played! Sure was a hit and I'm still eating it a few days later for lunch!
healthy and full of flavor! |
2 1/2 cups precooked quinoa
1 can (10 oz) black beans
1 cup grape tomatoes
1/2 avocado (chopped)
1 cup cilantro leaves
1/4 cup lime juice
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon lime zest
1 clove garlic
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
I added rotisserie chicken for even more protein
Enjoying our healthy meal at the Arboretum! |
