Ingredients:
\n\u2022 3 large cloves garlic,
\nminced
\n\u2022 1 onion, minced
\n\u2022 2 jalapenos minced
\n\u2022 1 tablespoon oil
\n\u2022 4 1\/2 cups cooked
\nblack beans
\n\u2022 1 1\/4 cup vegetable
\nbroth
\n\u2022 2 cups cooked quinoa
\n\u2022 1\/2 teaspoon cayenne
\npepper
\n\u2022 1 teaspoon chili
\npowder
\n\u2022 1 teaspoon cumin
\n\u2022 4 bell peppers, diced
\n\u2022 1 1\/4 cup Pico de
\nGallo (recipe next
\npage)
\n\u2022 diced green onions
\nInstructions:
\n1. Black beans: Heat oil
\nin a large skillet over
\nmedium-high heat.
\nAdd the garlic, onion,
\nand jalapeno,
\nsauteing for 4
\nminutes and stirring
\noccasionally. Stir in
\nbroth and black
\nbeans. Bring mixture
\nto a boil and cook for
\n5 minutes. Mash
\nbeans to desired
\nconsistency. I like to
\nmake them a little
\nmore like refried
\nbeans while still
\nleaving some of the
\nbeans whole. The
\nmixture should be
\nthick, not watery. If
\nyou still have a lot of
\nmoisture, let it cook
\nout by keeping it on
\nthe heat for another
\nfew minutes. Taste
\nand season with salt.
\n2. Quinoa: In a dry
\nnonstick skillet over
\nmedium high heat,
\ntoss and toast the
\ncooked quinoa with
\nthe cayenne, chili
\npowder, cumin, and
\nsalt for 1-2 minutes.
\nTaste and season
\nwith salt. Set aside.
\n3. Peppers: In the same
\ndry nonstick skillet
\nover medium high
\nheat, place the diced
\npeppers and do NOT
\nstir. This allows the
\npeppers to get a
\nbrown roasted look
\non the outside. Wait
\nfor 2-3 minutes
\nbefore stirring, then
\nlet them \u201croast\u201d for
\nanother few minutes
\nbefore removing from
\nthe heat.
\n4. Assemble: Preheat
\noven to 375 degrees.
\nSpoon black bean
\nmixture into a glass
\nbaking dish coated with
\ncooking spray. Top with
\nquinoa, bell peppers, and
\npico de gallo. Cover with
\nfoil and bake for 20
\nminutes. Sprinkle with
\ngreen onions and let cool
\nfor at least 10 minutes
\n(otherwise it will be too
\nrunny).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
