Ingredients:
- 1 C (cooked) Quinoa (about 1/4 C uncooked)
- 1.5 C veggie broth
- 1 can kidney beans (rinsed)
- 1/2 C tomato sauce
- Veggies: I used sliced zucchini, squash, green pepper, and tomato.
- Cracked pepper to taste
Instructions:
- If you don’t have the quinoa cooked yet, do that first. Then, start with the cooked quinoa and veggie broth. Put them both into a pan, and then add the veggies that need longer to cook. I added my zucchini and squash.
- Bring the mixture to a boil. Once it starts boiling, bring it down to a simmer and add the rest of the ingredients — kidney beans, tomatoes, green pepper, tomato sauce, and cracked pepper.
- Most of the liquid should have boiled off by now. Stir until it’s warmed through, and then serve!
