Plant-Based Vegetarian Ingredients
Method
Cooking Instructions
Prepare Quinoa
Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until quinoa is cooked and liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
Sauté Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped red onion and diced bell pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Combine Ingredients
In the skillet with vegetables, add the cooked quinoa, black beans (drained and rinsed), corn, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well and cook for another 5 minutes until heated through.
Finish and Serve
Remove from heat, then stir in lime juice and chopped cilantro. Adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve warm.
