Black Bean & Corn Quinoa
8 August 2022
If you want something a little different but still really delicious, give this one a go. I have made this for my family, reducing the chili powder to accommodate our children’s (and my) taste buds, and we enjoyed it. You can serve it on its own as a vegetarian meal, maybe even serve it with some cornmeal or savoury muffins, or use it as a side along some chicken, fish, sausages, beef etc.
What to put on label:
In the Notes section:
- Bake, covered, for 30 minutes at 180 degrees once defrosted.
- Serve as is or as a side with some type of meat. (These can either be supplied by yourself or the recipient can use what they have)
- Serving size: Choose from below, depending what size foil dish you used.
This will make enough to fill one large family-sized foil tin (serves 6); or 2 medium foil tins (serves 3-4 each); or 4 small individual-sized foil tins (serves about 1-2 each). [These are rough measurements]
