Rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold water and cook it according to package instructions, typically in 2 cups of water for about 15 minutes.
While the quinoa cooks, prepare the vegetables. Dice 1 bell pepper and chop 1 cup of broccoli into small florets. Sauté them in a pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes until tender.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, sautéed vegetables, 1 can of drained and rinsed black beans, and 0.5 teaspoon of cumin. Mix well to combine.
For the sauce, mix 2 tablespoons of lime juice, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of chili powder, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
Assemble the burrito bowls by dividing the quinoa and vegetable mixture into 4 bowls. Drizzle with the lime dressing and top with chopped cilantro and avocado if desired.
