QUINOA BEAN TACOS



Quinoa Bean Tacos image

I loved the idea of using quinoa in tacos, and this is what has evolved as a favorite variation around here. Feel free to adjust toppings to your favorites. This also works with soft tacos (the 6" size), but the extra texture provided by a crunchy shell with the soft filling is a nice touch.

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup quinoa
8 ounces refried beans
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
8 hard taco shells
1/2 cup lettuce, shredded
1 tomatoes, chopped
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1 small jalapeno, chopped
2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
sour cream, to taste

Steps:

  • Prepare quinoa according to package directions, about 15 minutes.
  • When quinoa is done cooking and water has been absorbed, stir in refried beans, cumin, chili powder, and cayenne pepper. Mix well to combine and reduce to low heat.

Remove the quinoa from heat and let it rest, still covered, for 5 minutes. Uncover the pot, drain off any excess liquid and fluff the quinoa with a fork. Stir in the drained black beans and add salt and pepper, to taste. Cover and set aside for a couple of minutes to warm up the beans.
