In a medium saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the red pepper and onions and cook, stirring often, until slightly softened about 5 minutes.
Stir in the quinoa, cumin, chile powder, salt and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cover. Simmer until quinoa is barely tender, about 15 minutes.
Stir in the beans and half the cilantro and simmer, uncovered, until the liquid is absorbed, about 3 minutes.
Serve sprinkled with the remaining cilantro
