- 1 (25 ounce) canorganic garbanzo beans
- 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can fire-roasted tomatoes (diced)

- 1 cup quinoa (toasted and cooked)

- I cooked my toasted quinoa in my rice cooker and it came out perfect.
- To do this I took 1 cup of toasted quinoa and added it to 2 1/4 cups chicken broth.
- I let the rice cooker do its thing and when it was done fluffed it up and set it aside.
- Heat the coconut oil up on medium low in a non-stick saute pan.
- Saute the onions for a few minutes until they are transparent.
- Add the garlic and saute for a few more minutes.
- When that is done, add the ginger.
- Saute a few more minutes.
- Then add the garbanzo beans, tomatoes with the liquid from the can.
- Add the curry and the chipotle seasonings.
- Stir and taste.
- The flavor of the curry should shine through here.
- Stir it around for another few minutes, then add the cooked quinoa and give it a good stir.
- If you want add some salt and taste again.
- You can serve this on a tortilla, or in a pita pocket.
- Even wrapped in a lettuce leaf.
- Whatever you like.
- Bon Appetit.
