Ingredients: 1 cup quinoa; 2 cups vegetable broth; 1 tablespoon olive oil; 1 onion, chopped; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 red bell pepper, diced; 2 carrots, sliced; 1 zucchini, chopped; 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed; 1 can diced tomatoes; 1 teaspoon cumin; 1 teaspoon paprika; Salt and pepper to taste; Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

Start by rinsing the quinoa under cold water to remove any bitter taste. In a medium saucepan, combine the quinoa and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the quinoa is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
In a separate large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until fragrant and translucent.
Add the diced red bell pepper, sliced carrots, and chopped zucchini to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the black beans and diced tomatoes, along with the cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Allow the mixture to simmer for another 5-7 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Once the quinoa is ready, fluff it with a fork and add it to the skillet with the vegetable and bean mixture. Stir well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. If you prefer a little extra kick, you can sprinkle some red pepper flakes or hot sauce.
Serve the Fiber Fueled Recipes Fiber Food Factory hot, garnished with fresh parsley for a pop of color and added freshness.
