Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup quinoa
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups chicken broth
½ cup diced green bell pepper
½ cup diced red onion
1 cup corn
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained
¼ cup chopped cilantro
1 large tomato, diced
½ cup fresh lime juice, or to taste
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon adobo seasoning
½ cup feta cheese
salt and black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Rinse the quinoa thoroughly under cold water, and drain. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat, and cook and stir the quinoa until the water has evaporated and the quinoa is lightly toasted, about 3 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth, bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until the quinoa has absorbed all the broth, about 10 minutes. Cool quinoa in refrigerator at least 10 minutes.
  • Mix together green pepper, red onion, corn, black beans, cilantro, tomato, lime juice, red wine vinegar, olive oil, adobo seasoning, and feta cheese in a large salad bowl. Lightly stir in the quinoa, and season with salt, pepper, and additional lime juice to taste, if desired. Chill the salad at least 30 minutes before serving; serve cold.
