This is great to make on a Sunday for a weeks worth of lunches or you could throw in some chicken or beef fajita meat to make it a more complete meal.
Enjoy!

Southwestern Pasta
Salad

½ cup each diced red and green bell pepper
½ c. diced purple onion
feta cheese, crumbled (I use fat-free or reduced-fat)
Cherry tomatoes

1/3 c. vegetable oil
¼ c. fresh lime juice
1 jalapeno, minced
1 T. cumin
½ tsp salt

Cook quinoa, drain, cool a little.
Whisk all dressing ingredients together.
Add corn, beans, peppers, onion and feta to
