Ingredients
  

1 cup quinoa

2 cups water or low-sodium chicken broth

1 lb (450g) chicken breast, diced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed

1 cup corn kernels (frozen or fresh)

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 avocado, sliced

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Rinse quinoa under cold water. In a pot, bring water or chicken broth to a boil, add quinoa, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced chicken breast, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Sauté for about 8-10 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and no longer pink inside.

      Stir in black beans, corn, and diced bell pepper into the skillet with chicken. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until vegetables are softened.

        In meal prep containers, divide the cooked quinoa among them as the base.

          Top each container with the chicken, black bean, and corn mixture evenly distributed.

            Add slices of avocado on top and garnish with fresh cilantro.

              Serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the meal just before eating.
