INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 cup Black Beans (rinsed and drained)
1/4 medium Avocado (quartered)
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper, chopped
1/4 cup Corn Kernels
4.5 oz Extra Firm Tofu, cubed
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lime Juice
1 tsp Chili Powder
1 tsp Ground Cumin
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 tbsp Fresh Cilantro, chopped
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa under cold water. Cook quinoa according to package instructions until fluffy.
While the quinoa cooks, drain and rinse the black beans and set aside.
Dice the red bell pepper and cube the tofu. In a small bowl, toss the tofu cubes with chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil. Sauté the seasoned tofu until lightly browned on all sides, about 4-5 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, corn, diced red bell pepper, and sautéed tofu.
Gently fold in the avocado pieces and lime juice. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed.
Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
