Add dehydrated beans to the pot.

Pour in 8 cups of water.

Add chicken base stock to the pot, adjusting for desired saltiness.

Bring the mixture to pressure and cook for 8 minutes.

While waiting for the pressure, chop the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces.

Chop bell peppers and onions roughly, adding them to the pot after the quinoa has cooked.

Add minced garlic to the pot, adjusting the amount to taste.

After the initial 8 minutes, cook for an additional 3 minutes to combine flavors.
