Mexican Quinoa

I love this side!!! I made it for some friends earlier today with some grilled lime chicken. Loved it so much I made it again with a grilled pork loin for my family dinner! Done in under 15 minutes!

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 1 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 (15 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn kernels

Directions:

1. In a large pan combine quinoa, broth, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 10 minutes.

2. When liquid is absorbed, add corn, beans, and cilantro.
