In a small pot, combine the quinoa, water, and half the salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Done when water is absorbed and quinoa is tender.
While the quinoa cooks, heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and bell pepper and cook for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic, cumin, and smoked paprika and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the seitan to the skillet. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the seitan is browned on the edges.
Stir in the black beans, soy milk, water, nutritional yeast, and the remaining salt. Simmer for 4 minutes until the liquid has thickened into a light sauce that coats the seitan and beans. Remove from the heat and stir in the lime juice.
Fluff the quinoa with a fork and place it in a bowl. Top with the seitan and black bean mixture.
