Quick and easy, this salad has rich flavor and

zest. Quinoa (pronouced Keen-wah) is an

ancient grain packed with protein. the black

beans only add a creamy touch. fresh mango

gives sweetness, though fresh peach or apricot

could also be added. For a southwestern flavor,

add diced avocado right before serving.

1 1/2 cups quinoa

1 1/2 cups cooked black beans

1 1/2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar

1 1/2 cups cooked corn

3/4 cup finely chopped green bell pepper

2 jalapeño chilies, seeded and minced

1/4 cup finely chopped fresh coriander

1 diced mango

for the dressing:

5 tablespoons fresh lime juice, or to taste

1 teaspoon salt

1 1/4 teaspoons ground cumin, or to taste

1/3 cup olive oil

in a bowl wash quinoa in at least 5 changes cold

water, rubbing grains and letting them settle

before pouring off most of water, until water runs

clear and drain in a large fine sieve.

in a saucepan of salted boiling water cook

quinoa 10 minutes. drain quinoa in sieve

and rinse under cold water. Set sieve over a

saucepan of boiling water (quinoa should not

touch water) and steam quinoa, covered with

a kitchen towel and lid, until fluffy and dry,

about 10 minutes (check water level in kettle

occasionally, adding water if necessary).

While quinoa is cooking, in a small bowl toss

beans with vinegar and salt and pepper to taste.

Transfer quinoa to a large bowl and cool.

add beans, corn, bell pepper, jalapeños, and

coriander and toss well.

make dressing:

in a small bowl whisk together lime juice, salt,

and cumin and add oil in a stream, whisking

drizzle dressing over salad and toss well with

salt and pepper to taste. Salad may be made 1

day ahead and chilled, covered. bring salad to

room temperature before serving.

In 2007, Chef Josh Henderson merged

his love of street food with his high

end chef training and skillet was born.

Seasonally relevant, locally sourced,

and impeccably executed bistro-style

food now roams the streets of Seattle

in a restored 1962 Airstream trailer.

“I did the whole chef thing...culinary school,

worked in top kitchens, but still felt something

was missing. I love the freedom of street food.

Whatever is freshest on any day is exactly what

I get to make. People love it and seeing the

Airstream always makes them happy. I get to meet

so many different neighbors and the view is always

changing. I love it."

the balloon launch overwhelmed

our senses with color, pattern,

As the giant orbs of bright color
