Ingredients
3/4 cup quinoa, cooked to package directions
1/2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1/2 onion, medium dice
1 15-oz can fire roasted tomatoes (organic + BPA-free if possible!)
1-2 Tbsp. Harissa (or to taste)
1/4 cup vegetable stock (or water, if necessary)
1 15-oz can white northern beans (organic + BPA-free if possible!), drained and rinsed
salt + pepper to taste
Instructions
Make the quinoa: Cook quinoa to package directions. When finished, season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
Make the Harissa beans: As the qunioa is cooking, add olive oil to a large sauce pan over medium heat. Once hot, add onions, season with salt and pepper, and sauté until translucent and on the verge of getting some color, about 4-6 minutes.
Add tomatoes, Harissa, and stock, and increase the heat to high. Season with salt and pepper. Allow mixture to come to boil, stirring to make sure nothing sticks to the bottom of the pan. Allow liquid to reduce slightly as the mixture boils.
Once the mixture has reduced to your liking, add beans and allow to heat through. Taste, and adjust seasoning as necessary. Serve with quinoa.
