Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  2. Heat the oil in a 12-inch oven-safe sauté pan on medium heat.
  3. Add in the pepper, onion, and garlic and cook until lightly golden brown, stirring frequently.
  4. Into the pan, add the broth, frozen corn, salsa, chickpeas, black beans, nutritional yeast, cumin, salt, and a pinch of pepper, and stir well.
  5. Stir in the quinoa until all the grains are incorporated into the liquid. Bring the mixture to a boil.
