Barbecue Chicken Quinoa Salad

I am on a barbecue chicken kick these days. Not only have I been trying to use in various recipes but I got this amazing new barbecue sauce at Costco a few weeks ago (Stubbs). Last night I combined two separate meals into one. In the past we have had barbecue chicken quinoa as well as barbecue chicken salad. When preparing dinner I was going to have a side salad with our barbecue chicken quinoa and then decided to just combine the two.
It was as follows:
-Two chicken breasts, cooked on low all day in the crockpot. Once the chicken was cooked at added barbecue sauce and let it sit and simmer for another 30 minutes.
- 1 cup uncooked quinoa (2 cups cooked)
- Bed of lettuce
-1 can of black beans mixed with 1 can corn, seasoned with salt, garlic powder, and mixed with green onion. Then heated.
- Top as you see fit. As you can see below hubs chose it plan with only addition barbecue sauce and ranch. In addition to that, mine is topped with tomatoes and avocado. Delish.
 
While hubs was a huge fan of the combination I think I prefer the plain and simple barbecue chicken quinoa. No matter what combination you use though...it is SO good!
