Who said a healthy lunch was boring ! I can eat this every day or lunches like it. It is so satisfying and packs a lot of vitamins and protein to help you through your busy day! Make it vegetarian by just omitting the chicken. Make it with tuna or leftover crumbled salmon leftovers. Cook the quinoa and the bean salad ahead to have all week as a staple. The grapes are like a dessert.
The black bean corn salad:

can of black beans drained
can of corn or a cup frozen corn
small chopped onion
