Quinoa black bean salad

from Food.com

Good in burritos with all the fixins. Also very good as is.


    1/3 cup quinoa
    1 cup water
    1 teaspoon olive oil
    4 teaspoons fresh lime juice
    1/4 teaspoon cumin
    1/4 teaspoon coriander
    1 tablespoon fresh minced cilantro
    2 tablespoons minced scallions
    1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
    2 cups diced tomatoes
    1 cup diced bell pepper
    2 teaspoons minced jalapeno chiles
    salt and pepper

Directions:

    1. Rinse the dry quinoa first. Cook the quinoa in the water. Allow to cool slightly.
    2. In a large bowl, combine the oil, lime juice, cumin, coriander, cilantro and scallions.
    3. Stir in the beans, tomatoes, bell peppers and chilies (I omit the chilies and it’s still
         quite tasty).
    4. Add the cooled quinoa.
    5. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
