\n
Ingredients<\/div>\n
    \n
  • 2 cups of Texas Caviar recipe<\/li>\n
  • 1 cup dry quinoa; soaked and rinsed<\/li>\n
  • 2 cups vegetable broth<\/li>\n
  • 1 ripe avocado<\/li>\n
  • 1 lime; juiced<\/li>\n
  • \u00bc cup fresh cilantro; chopped<\/li>\n
  • Sriracha hot sauce or hot sauce of your choice<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
    Instructions<\/div>\n
      \n
    1. In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of vegetable broth to a boil.<\/li>\n
    2. Add in rinsed quinoa and bring mixture back up to a boil. Cover saucepan and turn heat to low. Cook for 15 minutes or until all of liquid is absorbed.<\/li>\n
    3. When finished, remove from heat, remove lid, stir, and set aside to cool. You will want quinoa to cool to room temperature before using it.<\/li>\n
    4. Prepare your Texas Caviar mixture (link to recipe above).<\/li>\n
    5. When quinoa has cooled to room temperature, place quinoa into a large mixing bowl and mix in two cups of the Texas Caviar mixture, making sure to include some of the dressing. Stir to thoroughly combine.<\/li>\n
    6. Cut your ripe avocado in half and carefully remove the pit.<\/li>\n
    7. With a large spoon, gently scoop around the edges to scoop out your avocado. Place avocado halves on a plate and coat thoroughly with your lime juice to add extra flavor and prevent the avocado from browning.<\/li>\n
    8. With a spoon, carefully fill your avocado halves with the quinoa mixture.<\/li>\n
    9. Drizzle some of the dressing from the Texas Caviar on top, and finish off with a drizzle of hot sauce and freshly chopped cilantro.<\/li>\n
    10. Serve and enjoy!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
