Ingredients:
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup uncooked quinoa
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
  • lime, zested
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained
  • 1 small red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1 small red onion, chopped
