1
Cook the quinoa

Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a small pot, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Add the rinsed quinoa, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and set aside to cool.

2
Prepare the vegetables

Finely chop the red onion. Roughly chop the cilantro leaves.

3
Rinse and drain the beans

Rinse the canned black beans under cold water and drain well.

Make the filling

In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, drained black beans, corn, chopped red onion, olive oil, juice of 1 lime, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

5
Prepare the avocados

Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pits. Scoop out some of the avocado flesh to create a larger cavity for the filling.

Stuff the avocados

Spoon the quinoa and bean mixture into the avocado halves, pressing gently to fill the cavities. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
