Directions:
Heat a large stock pot over medium heat. Add olive oil and heat. Add bell pepper and carrots, and mix with the oil. Saute for 5-7 minutes, until carrots begin to soften. Cover the pot between stirs to make the veggies cook faster.
Add the remaining ingredients, mix well, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 25-30 minutes, until the quinoa and lentils are cooked fully and the spices are fragrant. Serve warm with your favorite chili toppings!
