So good I am making this again tonight! I made this up for a Hawaiian Themed Teacher's Lunch but it turned out so good I had to have my own batch! ![](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v8/f57/1/16/1f609.png)

What you need...
1/2 onion, diced
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
~2 tsp olive oil
1/4 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp turmeric
14 oz. can Coconut Milk, shaken
15 oz. can black beans, rinsed and drained
12 oz. package Quinoa, rinsed
20 oz. can pineapple chunks in juice (no sugar added)
~2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
2 whole green onions, chopped
salt to taste, optional
1/2 onion, diced
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
~2 tsp olive oil
1/4 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp turmeric
14 oz. can Coconut Milk, shaken
15 oz. can black beans, rinsed and drained
12 oz. package Quinoa, rinsed
20 oz. can pineapple chunks in juice (no sugar added)
~2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
2 whole green onions, chopped
salt to taste, optional
.
Add onion and bell pepper to a large pot, drizzle with olive oil and turn to high heat. Add in spices and sautΓ© for about 3-4 minutes, stirring often until they begin to soften and turn translucent. Meanwhile, combine the juice from the pineapple & coconut milk, reserving pineapple chunks. This should equate to about 3 cups of liquid. You will then add water to reach a total of 4 cups liquid. Add the coconut milk, pineapple juice, water mixture to the pot, scraping the bottom to deglaze any bits. Pour in black beans and quinoa, stir to combine and bring to a boil. When it reaches a boil, turn to simmer/low, cover and allow to cook covered for about 15 minutes. Remove lid, if it is not completely cooked to a fluff and liquid completely absorbed, cover and cook 3 minutes longer. Stir in pineapple, onion and cilantro and serve warm!
