1. Prepare the slaw by mixing all the ingredient thoroughly in a large bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning to your liking. Set aside.
2. Set 2 cups of water to boil (1 cup if using soaked quinoa). While water comes to a boil, lightly toast the quinoa in a large sauté pan over medium heat, stirring frequently, until you notice a slightly nutty smell. Omit this step if using soaked quinoa and instead drain the quinoa thoroughly.
3. Once the quinoa is toasted/drained, slowly add the quinoa to the boiling water. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and leave the pan covered for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.
4. While the quinoa cooks, heat a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and the onions and sauté until onions soften about 3 minutes. Add the pepper and zucchini and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until vegetables are just tender, 8-10 minutes.
5. Add the cooked quinoa, beans, salsa, and cheese to the skillet and stir well. Cook another minute or two until heated through.
6. Divide the mixture among four plates and top each serving with tomato, avocado, cilantro, one tablespoon of pumpkin seeds, and a lime wedge. Serve with the Chipotle Slaw.

Tips for What to Do With Excess Ingredients: Leftover over salsa can be used to top eggs, layered on a sandwich, or even added to soups and stew to kick up the flavor. Leftover cilantro can top eggs, fish, or almost anything Asian or Mexican inspired.
