Ingredients

1 cup fresh or frozen corn kernels
1 15 oz can organic black beans
3 cups cooked white quinoa from 1 cup uncooked
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 cup jarred salsa
Cilantro to garnish optional

Preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Add corn and black beans and cook until corn is tender, about 3 minutes.

Add quinoa and cumin and stir to combine. Cook until quinoa is hot and begins to get a little crunchy, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes.
Stir in salsa and cook until everything is combined and quinoa begins to dry out a little more, about 2 minutes.
Remove from heat and let cool for 5 - 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork and serve.
Garnish with cilantro is optional.
