Very flavorful alternative to black beans and rice. Quinoa is a nutty grain from South America.
Ingredients
Directions
- Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic until lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
- Mix quinoa into onion mixture and cover with water. Season with cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until quinoa is tender and broth is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
- Stir corn and black beans into the saucepan, and continue to simmer until heated through, about 5 minutes.
