Quinoa and Black Beans

I was watching Dr Oz on TV the other day whilst recouperating and he mentioned that that two "super foods" are quinoa and black bean. They happen to be in one of my family's favorite foods. My Quinoa and black bean takes only about 15 minutes to prepare and 35 minutes to cook and each time I cook it there is never anything left.

Ingredients • 1 teaspoon olive oil • 1 red onion, chopped • 3 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped • 1 cup uncooked quinoa • 2 cups vegetable broth • 1 teaspoon ground cumin • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper • salt and pepper to taste • 1 cup fresh or canned corn kernels • 2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained • 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro Directions 1. Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onion and garlic, and saute until lightly browned. 2. Mix quinoa into the saucepan and cover with vegetable broth. Season with cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes, 3. Stir corn and black beans into the saucepan, and continue to simmer about 5 minutes until heated through. Add cilantro and serve.
