Ingredients

1 cup quinoa
1/2 avocado
1 cup cooked black beans
3 tomatoes
1/2 white onion
1-2 jalapeños
1 cup chopped cilantro
2 eggs
1-2 lime
sea salt
spicy salsa

Instructions

Add 1 cup quinoa and 1 cup water to the Instant Pot, place the trivet on top, and an ovenproof container on the trivet. Add the cooked beans into the container to warm up while quinoa is cooking, plus sea salt to taste. If you want to eat your breakfast bowl with hard-boiled egg instead of fried add one egg into the instant pot, as well (see video). Set Instant Pot to 1 minute on high pressure, then let the pressure release naturally.
In the meantime, prepare the pico de gallo by chopping onion, tomatoes, cilantro, and deseeded jalapeño. Add all ingredients to a small bowl and add 2 Tbsp lime juice and sea salt to taste.
Fry eggs if desired. Peel and slice half an avocado.
Build breakfast bowls by dividing all ingredients between two bowls. Drizzle with your favorite spicy salsa and enjoy.
