A simple bean salad.
May I add that I love simple! When I am hungry I am like a ravenous beast. I start stuffing my mouth with food. I am probably pretty scary actually. I opt for recipes that I can whip up in minutes and satisfy my inner beast.
This is a great example why it is key to have a weekly menu planned out for yourself. A weekly menu helps keeps you on a healthy track. When you know what you will be fixing for dinner, it helps eliminate not dipping your hand in that bag of chips or heading to your favorite fast food joint. But don't just do it for dinner; plan out your lunches and even snacks as well. You'll find it is easy to stick to a healthy eating regimen this way.
Ingredients:
1 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 Can Chickpeas (Garbanzo Bean)-drained and rinsed well
2 TBLS Capers
1 TBLS Olive Oil
1 TBLS Lemon Juice
1 TBLS Dill---You can use fresh or dried
pinch of salt

Combine all ingredients together. Stir to mix well.
I ate this salad cold. If you prefer heat the ingredients over low heat until warmed through.
