Mexican Red Quinoa Bowls

Mexican Red Quinoa Bowls


1. Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat.

2. Stir in the garlic, red pepper, and green onion and cook until the pepper softens, about 5-7 minutes.

3. Stir in the quinoa, beans, taco seasoning, oregano, cumin and salsa.

4. Add water to thin it out if it is too thick/sticky (this depends on if you use a runny salsa or a thick and chunky one).

5. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

6. Cook for 2 minutes more to warm up the additional ingredients.

7. Serve hot in a bowl, topped with black olives, green onion and a lime wedge.

8. Make sure you tell everyone to squeeze the lime over the quinoa as this really finishes off the dish and boosts the flavors.
