Well file this under D for disappointment. It wasn’t bad, it just wasn’t what I was expecting. It was hearty and had a pretty good kick, but I was expecting a richer flavor with the roasted peppers in it. The quinoa added a nice unique texture, but again it felt off. Maybe if it was called quinoa and pepper vegetable stew, it would have been better. Aya really liked though.

I LIKED IT! Maybe it was because of the added texture from the zucchini…the last vegetarian chili was all beans and didn’t have much to offer in the texture department other than mushy. If it weren’t for the extra kick from the poblano peppers and chipotle, it probably would’ve been just a chunky vegetable soup. But hey, I also LOVE quinoa.(who doesn’t love it with a name like that???)
