Spicy Quinoa, Bean, and Pepper Salad

Spicy Quinoa, Bean, and Pepper Salad
  • 1 teaspoon chile oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 large red bell pepper, chopped
  • 3/4 cup red quinoa
  • 1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/2 teaspoon chipotle pepper powder, or more to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup frozen corn kernels (optional)


  1. Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in hot oil until lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes; add chopped red pepper and continue to cook and stir until slightly tender, 1 to 2 minutes.
  2. Stir quinoa with the onion mixture. Pour vegetable broth into the saucepan; season with chipotle pepper powder and cayenne pepper. Bring the broth to a boil. Cover the saucepan, reduce heat to low, and simmer until the quinoa is tender, about 20 minutes.
  3. Stir black beans and corn into the quinoa mixture; simmer until the beans and corn are heated through, about 5 minutes more.
