Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 teaspoons olive oil
3 jalapeno peppers, seeded and finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 ¼ cups vegetable broth
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice
1 cup quinoa
1 cup frozen corn kernels
½ teaspoon kosher salt
⅓ cup chopped fresh cilantro
¼ lime, juiced

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Saute jalapeno peppers and garlic in hot oil until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Pour vegetable broth into the saucepan. Stir black beans, tomatoes, quinoa, corn, and salt into the broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer, covered, until the liquid is fully absorbed into the quinoa, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Fluff quinoa with a fork. Stir in cilantro and lime juice.
