Trim off excess fat from pork, cut into 1” pieces, combine with lemon juice and spices in a small bowl, add the pork, and set aside in the refrigerator to marinate for 1-2 hours.
Rinse quinoa thoroughly in cold water (this is required to avoid any bitter taste).
Bring ⅔ cup water and quinoa to a boil in saucepan. Reduce heat to a low simmer, cover and cook for 15-20 minutes until quinoa is fluffy and all the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Fluff the quinoa with a fork, mix through with lemon juice and cilantro, and transfer to bowl.
Heat ¼ tsp oil in a skillet over medium, cook the peppers and onions for 5 minutes until crisp-tender and set aside.
In the same skillet, pour remaining oil and cook the pork along with excess marinade until meat is no longer pink (about 4 minutes). Add peppers, stir for 30 seconds and set aside.
Toss quinoa, pork, and veggies in a large bowl and divide into 2.
Top with guac and sour cream, and serve warm!
