Ingredients
  • 1 pouch microwaveable quinoa pouch

  • 1/2 cup canned black beans

  • 1/2 cup jarred chunky corn salsa

Instructions
  • 1

    Slightly tear open the top of 1 microwaveable quinoa pouch (about 2 inches) to vent. Place the pouch upright in the microwave and heat on high for 90 seconds.

  • 2

    While the quinoa cooks, measure 1/2 cup of canned black beans into a colander. Rinse them thoroughly under cold running water to remove excess sodium and starch, then drain well.

  • 3

    Carefully remove the hot quinoa pouch from the microwave and pour the quinoa into a serving bowl.

  • 4

    Add the 1/2 cup of drained black beans and 1/2 cup of jarred chunky corn salsa directly to the bowl with the hot quinoa. Stir everything together thoroughly to let the heat of the quinoa warm the other ingredients, and enjoy immediately.
