High-protein One-pot Quinoa & Lentils
  1. Preheat the broth: Add the vegetable broth to a small saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until it comes to a simmer. Remove from the heat.

  2. Combine the ingredients: Add the quinoa, lentils, red onion, celery, carrots, corn, jalapeño, oregano, cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, chipotle powder, and diced tomatoes to a large saucepan. Add the preheated vegetable broth.

  3. Simmer covered over low heat for 15 minutes, undisturbed. Mix gently, and add more broth as needed to keep the quinoa just submerged. Cook covered for 5 minutes more.

  4. Set aside: Remove from the heat and let sit for 5 minutes covered. Remove the lid and mix gently to combine. Add salt to taste.

  5. For serving: Garnish with cilantro. Top with sour cream and avocado.
