2 Courgettes

6 Tomatoes (chopped into chunks)

1 Cup of Quinoa

2 Tablespoons of Tomato Paste

Coriander (chopped)

2 Heaped Teaspoons of Smoked Paprika

How to do it:

Chop your onion and courgettes into chunks, add to a deep sided pan with a splash of oil and stir fry for 5-10 minutes (until the veg pieces start to turn a little golden)

Add all other ingredients to the pan with 1 litre of boiling water.

Bring to a bubble and gently simmer with a lose lid on for 15 minutes until the quinoa grains have fluffed up, absorbing the liquid from the pan and turned a little translucent.
