Slow cooked Quinoa and Black Bean Chilli

This is really brilliant vegan chilli. Not least because you can just stick it in the slow cooker and leave it for three hours.

½ cup uncooked quinoa
15 oz can black beans
½ container 28 oz diced tomatoes
¼ cup chopped red pepper
¼ cup chopped green pepper
1 shredded carrot
½ onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic
½ small chili pepper
2 teaspoons chili powder
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 ½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon oregano
½ cup sweetcorn

Once I'd made it,  I opted to serve it as a burrito so I made up an easy guacamole with half an avocado, some chilli, salt and lemon juice smooshed together.

We had ours with yogurt and cheese,  but vegan substitutes could be used.
