Technically, quinoa isn’t a grain at all; it’s a seed. But who really cares? The ancient South American staple is loaded with complex carbs and protein. Coupled with black beans and corn, it makes a complete, plant-based meal.
Jar size: 4 cups
Layer the dry ingredients in the jar in the order listed.
Place all of the jarred ingredients into the Instant Pot. Add 4 cups of broth or water. Stir to mix. Cover with the lid and ensure the vent is in the “Sealed” position. Pressure Cook on High for 5 minutes. Allow the steam pressure to release naturally for 5 minutes, then release any remaining pressure manually.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice.
Notes
Ingredient Tip: Make sure to use precooked, dehydrated black beans. They should not be confused with dry black beans, which require a much longer cooking time.
