** Stewed tomatoes are easy! Blanch and remove the skin and take out the seeds. Puree half of what you've got and cook it with the solid half, lightly salted, for ten minutes. I used 4.5 pounds of tomatoes for this recipe.

Sweat the onions in the oil and after about 10 minutes on low heat they should be ready for you to add the veggies. Cook for 5-7 minutes. Add tomatoes and chipotles followed by the beans, lentils and quinoa. Cook for 25-35 minutes and add seasonings and ingredients with a single asterisk.
