INGREDIENTS
1 tbsp
olive oil
2 cloves
garlic, minced
1
jalapeno, ribs removed and diced small

well-rinsed quinoa - I love using this brand from Ancient Harvest as you don't have to pre-rinse it
1 1/4 cups
chicken broth - feel free to use vegetable broth if you want to keep it vegetarian
1 15 ounce can
black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cups
cherry tomatoes, cut in half - If it's fall/winter, or if you're pressed for time you can use 1 (14.5-ounce) can of fire roasted diced tomatoes or regular diced tomatoes

1
medium red bell pepper (approx 1 cup), diced
1 1/2 tsp
chili powder
1/2 tsp
ground cumin
1/2 tsp
fine Kosher salt
1 tbsp
crushed red pepper flakes - you can add more or less depending on how spicy you like things.Both of my kids thought that it was perfectly spicy, but not too hot.
1
avocado, halved, seeded, peeled and diced
2 tbsp
fresh lime juice - from one lime
1/4 cup
