Blend until smooth. Heat grapeseed oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add beans and okra; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add amaranth (or microgreens) and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Toss arugula with the vinaigrette in a large bowl. Top with the bean mixture, cheese and onion. To make ahead Refrigerate vinaigrette (Step 1) for up to 4 days. Tip Amaranth (celosia) is a leafy plant that is cultivated for both its leaves and seeds. You can use the leaves as you would spinach, while the protein-packed seeds are often sold dried and can be cooked and prepared as a grain.
