Provided by Christy Gurin

Categories     Main Dish

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup quinoa ((you can substitute 1 1/2 cups of cooked quinoa or brown rice to make this faster))
1 15 ounce can black beans
1/2 tablespoon coconut oil
2 bell peppers (seeded and chopped)
1 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
2 ears corn (shucked (or 1 cup frozen))
1/2 pound mushrooms (washed and sliced)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 cup chopped cilantro (split in half)
3/4 cup salsa
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 head lettuce (washed and leaves separated (I like butter leaf))
1 avocado (diced)

Steps:

  • Rinse quinoa and bring to a boil with 1 1/2 cups of water (or broth) in a small pot. Cover, reduce heat to low and let quinoa cook for 15 minutes before removing from heat and fluffing cooked quinoa with a fork (or just cook according to package directions).
  • While quinoa cooks, melt coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and bell pepper and sauté until peppers start to sear.
  • Add garlic, corn, and mushrooms and continue cooking until veggies are cooked and lightly browned.
  • Stir in salt, chili powder, paprika, cumin, half of the chopped cilantro, and 1/4 cup salsa. Add quinoa and black beans. Stir and remove from heat.
  • Serve veggie filling, grated cheese, additional salsa, cilantro, and avocado with lettuce using each leaf as a taco shell.
