Instructions
- Dice Onion, Chop Carrot, Cube Sweet Potato.

- Add Quinoa, Sweet Potato, and Carrot, bring it to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes.

- Stew will begin to thicken as the quinoa cooks. You may add more water if you want it more like a soup. While stew is cooking, cube the Avocado, cut the Lime into wedges, and chop the Cilantro.
