Ingredients
1
lb
extra lean ground beef
1
14 oz
can diced tomatoes
1
small onion
2
bell peppers
or use a bag of frozen onion and peppers
1
pack of taco seasoning
3/4
cup
quinoa
1.5
cups
bone broth
1.5
cups
shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Cook ground beef breaking it up until no longer pink (option to drain any excess grease)
Slice onion and peppers and add to pan, stir and cook for another 5 minutes
Add taco seasoning, quinoa, diced tomatoes & broth
Stir well, cover & lower heat to a simmer. Cook for 15-20 mins
Remove lid, top with cheese & put the lid back on until the cheese has melted (roughly 2-5 minutes)
Option to serve with green onion, avocado & Greek yogurt
Notes
The quinoa will continue to cook and absorb any extra liquid so if it's too runny, let it cook for a few more minutes.
Ground turkey is a great substitute if you don't love red meat.
If you're tight on time, I highly recommend finding a bag of frozen peppers and onion making this dish a no-chop dinner.
