Preparation Steps

1

Cook the Quinoa

Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and let it cool.

2

Prepare the Vegetables

Dice the red bell pepper and avocado. Chop the cilantro finely.

3

Mix Ingredients

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

4

Dress the Salad

In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Pour the dressing over the quinoa salad and toss gently to combine.

5

Serve

Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve immediately, or refrigerate for an hour to let flavors meld.
