Quinoa and black bean lettuce wraps

All of the quinoa bean recipes I could find included tomatoes in some form. So I threw together some seasonings for a flavorful little delight that is AI :)




Quinoa and black bean lettuce wraps
Lettuce leaves
1 cup uncooked quinoa
2 cups chicken broth
2 cans black beans (drained and rinsed)
1 red bell pepper chopped
1/4 onion chopped small
2 large avacados
........
1 t GF chili powder 
1 t salt
1/2 t onion powder
2 t cumin

1/2 t garlic powder
1 T apple cider vinegar
1 T olive oil

Cook quinoa according to package (but with chicken broth instead of water). While it's cooking, chop bell pepper and onion and slice avocados  When the quinoa is cooked add the rest of the ingredients except avocados  Fill lettuce leafs with the mixture and add avocados on top.  
For a little protein on the side, I'll eat 1 slice of turkey bacon or a little turkey sausage.
