 I am a DEVO Diva which means that every other month they send me sample of their olive oils and balsamic vinegars to try in my recipes. This month I decided to make my version of a Quinoa Chili recipe from Pinterest that I have made before. This time I used Wild Mushroom and Sage EVOO by DEVO Olive Oil Co.  and added diced, earthy mushrooms.
This recipe is easy and packed full of great flavor! Just like my other Meatless Monday meals it’s hearty, tasty, and I promise you won’t even
miss the meat!

  • 2 cups cooked quinoa 1/2 cup uncooked simmered with 1 cup water
  • 2 Tbsp + 1 tsp Devo Wild Mushroom and Sage extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 tsp paprika

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large cast iron pot over medium heat.
  • Add onion and mushrooms and saute until tender, about 4 minutes, adding in

Recipe adapted from Cooking Classy

Start by heating two tbsp of olive oil in a deep pot and add diced onions and mushrooms.
Cook until softened, about four minutes.
 Then add crushed garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds or so.
 
 
Cook the quinoa and set aside.
Here’s how I cook it: 1/2 cup quinoa with 1 cup water.
Boil over medium for five minutes then remove from heat and let sit for 15 minutes.
Fluff quinoa with a fork and mix in 1 tsp of olive oil.

Now it’s time to mix in all the other ingredients!
 
Add vegetable broth, green chiles, tomato sauce, and crushed tomatoes.
Next mix in cooked quinoa and all the spices.
Mix all together (look at all those delicious mushrooms!) 
and turn down the heat.
 
Add beans and cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
 
The quinoa and mushrooms add a delicious meaty, earthiness that is 
unlike any other vegetarian chili I have ever had!
 

Packed full of ingredients and flavor!
 
Garnish with green onions, sour cream, and shredded cheese.
Happy Meatless Monday! You are gonna love this chili!
