#### Easy Low Calorie High Fiber
**Ingredients:**
– 1 cup quinoa
– 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
– 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
– 1 red bell pepper, diced
– 1 yellow bell pepper, diced
– 1 cup corn kernels
– 1 small red onion, finely chopped
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon cumin
– 1 teaspoon chili powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

**Instructions:**
1. Start by rinsing the quinoa under cold water to remove any bitterness. In a medium saucepan, combine the quinoa and low-sodium vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the quinoa is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
2. While the quinoa is cooking, in a large skillet over medium heat, add the black beans, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, corn, red onion, and garlic. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender.
3. Add the cooked quinoa to the skillet with the vegetables. Sprinkle in the cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine all the ingredients and let it cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
4. Once everything is heated through and well combined, remove the skillet from heat. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
5. Serve the Easy Low Calorie High Fiber dish hot, garnished with freshly chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice for an extra burst of freshness.
