Quinoa Recipe!

I was hesitant to try this at first because I'd never had quinoa before but this is so good. I watch the Shaytards on Youtube and I got this recipe from them!

Ingredients:
2 cups quinoa rinsed
1 jalapeƱo
4 cloves garlic
3 diced tomatoes
1/2 of an onion, diced
Bunch of cilantro, diced
1 can of corn, drained
1 can of beans, rinsed
1/2 green pepper, chopped

First, rinse the quinoa and add it to 3 cups of boiling water. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes stirring occasionally. It's done cooking when all the water is gone. The finished product looks similar to rice.

Next mix all of the vegetables in and then add the quinoa in.

For the sauce:

1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon cumin
1 teaspoon salt
2 limes juiced

Mix all of those ingredients together and pour on top of the mixture and stir in.

And you're finished! This stuff is delicious and certainly healthy. I served it with tortillas and a bit of cheese or you can have it as a dip with tortilla chips.
