OK, this is a good one. I have little mental capacity left, and am holding on to my reserves in order to get necessary work done before bed, never mind packing for Tofino (we leave tomorrow – I hope), but I can offer up this. (I’ve been up before 5:30 for almost two weeks, and not compensating at bedtime – I feel like I’m 90, with far fewer IQ points. How do people function on no sleep?)
The good news – Ataulfo mangoes are here, which means there’s a case of them ripening on my kitchen counter, and I’m cutting one for W approximately every five minutes. (Ataulfos are the slightly smaller, slimmer, yellow-green mangoes you might start seeing in the produce section – they’re creamier, smoother and lack the sinewy fibers you may associate with the big green-red Haden or Tommy Atkins varieties that are hardier and thus available year-round.) There are a ton of things I’d love to do with them, but I suspect most are destined for a spoon, or W’s Empire Strikes Back bowl. But one did make it into a batch of quinoa salad:
2-3 green onions or a chunk of purple onion, chopped
2 cups (packed) baby spinach, torn or sliced (optional)
half a 19 oz. can black beans, rinsed and drained
handful of torn cilantro (optional)
Dressing
1/4 cup canola oil
2-4 Tbsp. white wine or white balsamic vinegar
1 Tbsp. mango chutney, chopped if chunky (optional)
1 tsp. honey
1 tsp. curry powder or mild paste
1/4 tsp. cumin
1
Rinse quinoa well under cool water in a fine sieve, then cook in a pot of boiling salted water over medium heat until tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes. (Just like you'd cook pasta.) Drain well, return to the pot, put the lid back on and let it steam - this will produce fluffy quinoa - until cooled.
2
Combine the oil, vinegar, chutney, honey, curry and cumin in a jar or small bowl and shake or whisk to blend. If you like, season the dressing with salt and pepper.
3
Put the quinoa, mango, vegetables and beans in a large bowl, drizzle with dressing and toss until well coated.
2-3 green onions or a chunk of purple onion, chopped
2 cups (packed) baby spinach, torn or sliced (optional)
half a 19 oz. can black beans, rinsed and drained
handful of torn cilantro (optional)
Dressing
1/4 cup canola oil
2-4 Tbsp. white wine or white balsamic vinegar
1 Tbsp. mango chutney, chopped if chunky (optional)
1 tsp. honey
1 tsp. curry powder or mild paste
1/4 tsp. cumin
Directions

Put the quinoa, mango, vegetables and beans in a large bowl, drizzle with dressing and toss until well coated.
Yum!
I’ve forgotten how much I love this kind of salad.
Everything but the mangoes are on hand.
The weather is dreadful here today (BC lower mainland) pack your wellies and bring candles. It’s got to be worse in Tofino.
I just saw quinoa the other day at my local co-op (the north hill location on 16th ave). I was trying to think of a use for it – now I have one. Looks great!
Costco has started carrying “tru Roots” brand of organic, pre-washed quinoa in 3 lb. bags. Ever since I bought one, I’ve been looking for a neat recipe or two to use with it. Thanks for this and the info on those “other” mangoes in the market.
Fantastic looking salad! I’m also amazed you had the energy to post anything given your schedule.
I saw Ataulfo mangoes at Save On the other day. I’ll have to see if our Superstore has cases – so I can make your salad and try a recipe for gingerbread toaster pastries – it originally called for peaches but I can’t wait til peach season.
i’m with W…mangos YUM!!
and on the ‘no sleep’ question, Julie…just like anything else, your body adjusts. it does get easier and you get your brain cells back again, really you do.
Yum! Thankyou for this one, I am a huge fan of anything with Quinoa…and anything with Mango so doesnt’ get much better then this! 🙂
Have an awesome trip, Tofino is one of my favourite places and Ucuelet. I head that way atleast a few times each summer, of course I’m just on the other side of the island so its not so hard to do.
Oh, ataulfos!! We’ve been gobbling them, also, instantly upon ripeness if not sooner. If we can possibly maintain a little self-discipline and wait until supper, this looks like a fine fate. I’m imagining lime juice, maybe queso fresco, perhaps a little avocado. Cilantro! Really, the whole mango/black bean/grain combo just looks smashing.
Special trip to Community Natural foods: Quinoa and cute little mangoes are at the door, ready to go to my daughter’s house… we have a date tonight, and what better way to spend it than making this beautiful bowl of tastiness?
My chives are big enough, I’m sure, to add to this…
I am on a low glycemic diet, so this may be a great recipe for me to use! There are so few options when you are trying to lose weight! 🙂 Thanks for the great recipe! I’ll let you know how it turns out:)
Hi Julie! I love your blog; it has brought me inspiration on more than one occasion 🙂 Since it’s feeling like summer, it’s time for fun salads. This is one of my favorites! I’ve been asked for the nutritional breakdown and am wondering if you have that information availble. If so, would I be able to use it? Thank you!
Just enjoyed this with the family (even our younger girls liked)! Used everything in the salad, except I had no chutney (used white wine vinegar w/ lemon). Fortunately I made a double batch and now have lunches for the wife and kids. Thanks!
I followed the recipe to the letter. The colors were beautiful, but the green onions and curry seemed to overpower all the other flavors. Could not taste the delicate mango. I am going to try again and modify the ingredients a little.
Great items from you, man. I’ve have in mind your stuff previous to and you are simply too wonderful.

Where in Calgary does one buy quinoa? I love it but seldom have it because I can’t find it.
I buy mine in bulk at Community Natural Foods.. I think they have it in bulk at the Superstore as well.

I made this salad for dinner Sunday – as did a good friend of mine – I sent her a link to the recipe last week. We both LOVED it. Thanks!!
Just made this for a lunchbox salad for the week. The first bites are delicious! Can’t wait to try it after the flavours have mixed.
LOVE this recipe. I’m a dietitian and I refer people to your blog and this recipe specifically all the time. Great way to introduce newbies to quinoa.
