A hearty and flavorful quinoa and bean stew, perfect for a cozy meal.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Using a heavy-bottomed pot ensures even heat distribution.
Add the chopped onion and green pepper to the pot and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the vegetables from sticking.
Stir in the minced garlic and spices, cooking until fragrant.
Cooking the spices briefly enhances their flavor.
Add the quinoa, corn, tomato sauce, and water to the pot. Stir to combine.
Rinse the quinoa beforehand to remove any bitterness.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, cover, and cook until the quinoa is tender.
Check occasionally to ensure the mixture doesn't stick to the bottom.
Stir in the kidney beans and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Serve the stew hot, garnished with your favorite toppings.
Try topping with avocado slices, fresh cilantro, or a dollop of yogurt for added flavor.
