- 1 1/2 /2 cups vegetable broth

- 1/2 /2 cup cilantro fresh, chopped
- 1 avocado ripe, diced, optional

Instructions
- Rinse the quinoa in a strainer. Sometimes it can have a bitter taste on the outside so rinsing gets rid of this.

- Add the quinoa and vegetable broth to the pan. Add the cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Bring mixture to a boil and then cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Stir in lime juice and frozen corn into the pan and simmer for 5 minutes or until corn is heated through.
- Finally, mix in the black beans and cilantro. Garnish with chopped avocado if desired.
- Serve hot or cold. Store in refrigerator.
