Quinoa and Black Beans


http://vegetarian.allrecipes.com/az/QinndBlckBns.asp

This is another kid friendly, quick, one pot meal (I love one pot meals!). I follow the recipe but, add a can of Muir fire roasted tomatoes w/ chilies w/ the veggie broth. I always rinse the quinoa first it does help. Also, the age of the quinoa will influence the cooking time and the amount of liquid needed. The kids were lacking in the fruit department soo they got a side of applesauce w/ pineapple.

That looks terrific!! I like quinoa but haven't made anything with it in awhile. I'm with you on one pot meals. Not only do they give you several servings (usually enough for lunch the next day), they make for much easier clean up in the kitchen :)

That looks like a casserole, a perfect sqauare meal. I like one dish meals too and black bean / corn is a favorite combo here.
