  2. If using black beans: briefly rinse the canned beans under cold water.
  3. Halve the tomatoes.
  4. Put the spinach in a bowl.
  5. Add the beans or quinoa.
  6. Add the tomatoes.
  7. Stir in a few spoonfuls of salsa.
  8. Mix everything together and serve immediately.

  • or 75 g quinoa, dry
  • Spinach
