This spicy, energizing lunch is the perfect meal for preventing a midday slump. Protein-rich beans will keep energy levels steady for hours.

In large pot, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and bell pepper and cook, stirring often, until soft.

Add tomato and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and juicy, about 2 minures. Stir in cumin, coriander and ginger, and mix well.
