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.
