High Protein Millet Salad

 

This is the perfect salad to bring along on a picnic or take to a potluck any time of year. 

Your meat eating friends will love it and your vegetarian friends will be thrilled. If you are going to a rather large function, you may want to double the recipe.
 
High Protein Millet Salad 

2 cups cooked millet
1 mango diced, fresh or frozen
1 handful of chopped cilantro
1 can of black beans, drained
1/2 red bell pepper diced
1 large carrot diced 
4 green onions thinly sliced
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoons fresh lime juice or more to taste


In a small bowl, combine wet ingredients. Set aside. 
In a large bowl, combine all the other ingredients. 
Pour the wet ingredients over the millet mixture
and toss.


Add ground black pepper and/or a few dashes of hot sauce to taste.
(You may not want to add any salt because the canned beans were
probably loaded with it already. Check the label.)
