Method

Preparation

1

Rinse Quinoa

Rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold water in a fine mesh strainer to remove any bitterness.

Cook Quinoa

In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and 2 cups of vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the quinoa is fluffy and the broth is absorbed.

Chop Vegetables

While the quinoa is cooking, chop the red bell pepper and red onion into small dice. Rinse and drain the black beans and corn kernels. Chop the cilantro roughly.

Mixing

Combine Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, diced red bell pepper, black beans, corn, red onion, and cilantro.

5

Add Spices and Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together the cumin, chili powder, olive oil, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Pour this dressing over the quinoa mixture and toss gently to combine.
