Black bean and Corn Quiona


I love pretty much anything with black bean and corn in it. I always get wraps for lunch with that combo and I love the lime cilantro dressing that is usually paired with it. So I stumbled across this recipe on pinterest, except the recipe had no measurements of anything whats so ever so I just tried out some measurements and they seemed to work well for me. It was delish.

Cook your quiona (cooking directions will vary depending on what kind you get) and set aside.
Start off by cooking your black beans (or if they are pre-cooked just warming them up a bit).
Cook your corn and set it aside.
Meanwhile chop a half of sweet vidalia onion, red pepper, and orange pepper.

In a small bowl mix the juice from one lime, two-three tablespoons of olive oil, salt, pepper, a clove of chopped garlic, a handful of your chopped onion, and some chopped cilantro (as much or as little as you prefer). Set aside.

Put all the ingredients in a bowl and toss together.
Add some cilantro on top for garnish and your done!

*Also, another good add-in for this would be crumbled feta. It goes really well with the flavor combo
