Quinoa and Black Beans

This is a recipe I found on AllRecipes a little while back. I was hoping to find it to link to it but for now, here is the recipe as I have it written down. Quinoa and black beans are both amazing for you and I love that this recipe combined them together into a super healthy recipe.


1       onion, chopped
3       cloves of garlic, chopped
3/4    cup uncooked quinoa
1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
1       tsp ground cumin
1/4    tsp cayenne pepper
1       cup frozen corn kernals
2 (15oz) cans black beans


1) Heat up a saucepan with some vegetable oil in it. Brown the onions and garlic in it.
2) Mix the quinoa into the saucepan and cover in the broth. Add the cumin, cayenne and some salt and pepper. Bring to a boil.
3) Reduce heat and let simmer 20 minutes. Stir in frozen corn and simmer 5 more minutes. Add the black beans and serve.
