Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Begin by rinsing the quinoa under cold water to remove any bitterness.

  2. Press the "Sauté" button on your Instant Pot and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the rinsed quinoa and toast for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. Add water, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika to the quinoa. Stir well to combine.

  4. Next, add black beans, diced tomatoes, corn, green chilies, vegetable broth, cumin, and chili powder to the Instant Pot. Give everything a good stir.

  5. Secure the lid on the Instant Pot, ensuring the venting knob is set to the "Sealing" position.

  6. Cook on high pressure for 1 minute, followed by a quick release of the pressure.

  7. Once the pressure has been released, carefully remove the lid. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the mixture and stir to incorporate.

  8. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and serve the quinoa in bowls topped with avocado slices and shredded cheese.
