Method

1. Rinse the quinoa thoroughly in cold water. In a saucepan, bring 1 1/2 cups of water to a boil, stir in the quinoa, cover, and simmer on low heat for 10 to 15 minutes until the water is fully absorbed. Remove from heat and let it cool for 15 minutes.
2. While the quinoa is cooking, whisk the olive oil, lime juice, cumin, ground coriander, chopped cilantro, and minced scallions together in a small bowl to create your dressing.
3. In a large salad bowl, combine the rinsed black beans, chopped tomatoes, red and green bell peppers, and minced green chiles.
4. Add the cooled quinoa and the prepared dressing to the vegetable mixture. Toss everything gently to combine, season with black pepper to taste, then cover and refrigerate until chilled before serving.
