You’re about to meet one of your favorite new dishes. Light, fluffy, and springy, quinoa is one of the healthiest seeds (that’s often mistaken for a grain) you can eat. And when paired with Tex-Mex flavors, it’ll make you want to dance. If you like, you can serve it topped with a dash of hot sauce or a small sprinkle of crumbled cotija or shredded low-fat cheese.

INSTRUCTIONS
-
Add the oil to the Instant Pot, hit Sauté, and Adjust so it’s on the More or High setting. After 3 minutes of heating, add the onion, bell pepper, and jalapeño (if using) and sauté for 5 minutes, until lightly softened. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
-
Meanwhile, put the quinoa in a fine-mesh strainer and rinse under cold running water for 90 seconds; drain well.
-
Add the quinoa to the pot and toss until coated in the veggies and oil.
-
Add the broth, lime juice, black beans, tomatoes, corn (if using), cilantro (if using), cumin, seasoned salt, and chili powder. Stir well.
-
Secure the lid, move the valve to the sealing position, hit Keep Warm/Cancel, and then hit Manual or Pressure Cook on High Pressure for 1 minute. When done, allow a 10-minute natural release followed by a quick release.

Fluff the quinoa with a fork, stir, and serve topped with additional fresh cilantro and cotija cheese, Parmesan cheese, or nutritional yeast, if desired.
