Ingredients:

• Small onion diced
• 8 oz 99% lean ground turkey
• 1 medium zucchini chopped
• 1 small sweet pepper chopped (red, orange or yellow)
• 1 package of taco seasoning (preferably low sodium)
• 15 oz can pinto beans drained and rinsed
• 15 oz can of diced tomatoes with chilies
• 14 oz can of broth (chicken, beef or vegetable)
• 1 cup (170 g) quinoa
• 1 tbsp lime juice

In a large nonstick frying pan, grease it sprayed brown soil of Turkey and onions over medium heat.

Add the zucchini, peppers and taco seasoning. Toss to coat the vegetables with the sauce.

Add broth and beans, diced tomatoes, and quinoa. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Cover and about 20 minutes, until quinoa absorbs the most liquid.

Whisk the lemon juice and serve! I sprayed a little "shredded Mexican cheese mix on top.
