चरण

1

Bring 2 cups water, quinoa, and bouillon granules to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and water has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Spread quinoa onto a baking sheet and refrigerate until cooled, about 30 minutes. Rinse the saucepan.

2

Place lima beans into the saucepan and add water to cover beans by 1 inch; season with salt and pepper. Cover the saucepan with a lid and bring water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until beans are cooked through but still tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain water and rinse beans under cold water to stop the cooking process; refrigerate until cool, about 10 minutes.

3

Cook and stir almonds in a skillet over medium heat until toasted, about 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from heat and cool almonds to room temperature, about 5 minutes.

4

Mix quinoa, lima beans, almonds, tomatoes, scallions, and mozzarella cheese together in a large bowl.

5

Whisk vinegar, almond oil, olive oil, Italian seasoning, basil, garlic, and salt together in a small bowl until smooth; pour over quinoa mixture and stir to coat.

💡 For enhanced flavor, you can toast the quinoa before boiling.This salad can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to 48 hours.Substitute lima beans with edamame for a different texture and slightly sweeter flavor.If you’re vegan, replace mozzarella with a plant-based cheese alternative.
