Steps

30 min

1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet with a lid over medium heat.
2

Sauté the garlic and jalapeno until it starts to brown, about one minute.
3

Add the quinoa, vegetable broth, black beans, diced tomatoes, corn, chili powder, cumin, ¼ tsp salt to the skillet and stir to mix well.
4

Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce heat to medium low and cover the pan with the lid.
5

Cook covered for 20 minutes, until the quinoa is cooked through, but stir it halfway through cooking just to make sure the quinoa cooks evenly.
6

Before serving, sprinkle the chopped cilantro and diced avocado on top and then squeeze ½ of the lime in as well. Taste and add more lime juice, salt and pepper if needed.
