Ingredients

  • ½ cup uncooked tri-color quinoa 

  • ¾ cup minced red onion (about ½ of a medium red onion)

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 large lemon, juiced

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • ¾ teaspoon Natural Falksalt

  • ¾ teaspoon coarse ground black pepper

  • 1 13.4-ounce carton of Jack’s Quality organic garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed

  • 1 13.4-ounce carton of Jack’s Quality organic black beans, drained and rinsed

  • 1 cup shelled edamame (If using frozen edamame, run it under warm water for 20 seconds to thaw.)

  • ¼ cup packed Italian parsley leaves, finely chopped

  • 3 scallions, finely chopped

Directions

  • Place the quinoa and ¾ cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer, cover and cook for 15 minutes. Let the quinoa rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

  • While your quinoa is cooking, combine the minced red onion, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper. Let stand for 10 minutes, until the onions have softened slightly.

  • Drain and rinse your beans. When it comes to the garbanzo beans, I like to remove their skins because I’m obsessive like that. To do this, place the drained garbanzo beans between two sheets of paper towel and rub lightly. This will loosen the skins, which you can then pick off and discard. (Yes, this is optional, but it’s not that hard, so you should probably just do it.)

  • Place the beans in a large mixing bowl with the cooked quinoa, parsley and scallions. Add the red onion mixture and mix to combine. Taste and season with extra salt if necessary.

  • Cover and refrigerate your quinoa bean salad for at least half an hour to let the flavors mingle. Serve cold or at room temperature.
