Instructions
Step 1
Cook the quinoa: In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let sit covered for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
Step 2
Prepare the vegetables: While quinoa cooks, dice the avocado, halve the cherry tomatoes, chop the red onion and cilantro, and drain and rinse the black beans. If using frozen corn, thaw it under running water.
Step 3
Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Step 4
Assemble the bowls: In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked quinoa, black beans, corn, avocado, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro. Pour the dressing over and toss gently to coat.
Step 5
Add toppings: Divide the quinoa mixture evenly among four bowls. Top with your choice of seeds, nuts, carrots, or broccoli for extra fiber and crunch.
Step 6
Serve immediately: Enjoy warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
