Ingredients

Servings:

7-8 tomatillos
2 cups corn kernels
2 tbsp avocado oil
1 cup quinoa
2 cups water
2 cups black beans
1-2 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp cumin
1-2 tsp cilantro chopped
salt to taste
1 avocado chopped

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400.
In a bowl, toss the tomatillos and corn in the avocado oil.
Spread onto a baking sheet and roast for about 20 minutes. You may need to toss once halfway through. Once the tomatillos are cooled, give them a rough chop.
In a small saucepan, add the quinoa and water. Bring to a boil, then turn down, cover and simmer until all the water is absorbed. About 10 minutes.
Add everything, except the avocado, to a bowl and mix well. Once ready to serve, chop avocado and serve on top.
