Directions Easy Mexican Quinoa
Directions
-
Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat, saute onion in hot oil until slightly softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in quinoa and taco seasoning, saute until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Pour water into quinoa mixture. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and simmer for 15 minutes. Stir beans and tomatoes into quinoa mixture, cover the saucepan again with the lid, and simmer until quinoa is tender and water is absorbed, about 5 minutes more. Stir Cheddar cheese into quinoa, spoon into bowls, and top each with a dollop of sour cream.
