Black Bean-Quinoa Bowl

This dark bean and quinoa bowl has large numbers of the typical signs of a taco salad, less the broiled bowl. We've stacked it up with pico de gallo, new cilantro and avocado in addition to a simple hummus dressing to sprinkle on top.

Ingredients

• ¾ cup canned black beans, rinsed
• ⅔ cup cooked quinoa
• ¼ cup hummus
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• ¼ medium avocado, diced
• 3 tablespoons pico de gallo
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

Join beans and quinoa in a bowl. Mix hummus and lime squeeze together in a little bowl; meager with water to wanted consistency. Shower the hummus dressing over the beans and quinoa. Top with avocado, pico de gallo and cilantro.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
