Spanish quinoa with black beans and corn

My two year old devours bowls full of this protein packed, clean eating meal. As simple as it is, it makes a great side to our taco Tuesday nights or as a main dish on meatless Mondays.

Ingredients:
2 cups quinoa
5 cups water
1 cup salsa ( I use Kirkland organic)
1 can black beans; drained
1 can organic corn; liquid included




In a large pot mix the 2 cups quinoa; 5 cups water and 1/2 cup salsa, cook on low until most of liquid is absorbed; then add remaining salsa, black beans, and corn. Mix well and continue cooking for about five minutes until the liquid is absorbed


Serve and enjoy!!
