6-Ingredient Mexican-Style Quinoa Salad

Ingredients:

1. 1/2 cup dry quinoa, pre-rinsed

2. 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed

3. 1 cups salsa, no-sugar added

4. 1 cup corn kernels

5. 1 teaspoon chili powder

6. 1 avocado, peeled and small diced

Directions:

• Add 1 cup water and quinoa to a medium pot and bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook until most moisture is absorbed, about 12-15 minutes. Turn off heat and leave covered quinoa on burner for 5 minutes.
