Easy Vegetable Paella (vegan, gluten-free)

0 Heat the oil on medium high heat in a big pan or large cast iron pan. When it’s hot, add the garlic, onion, red peppers. Cook until golden brown.
1 Add the chopped tomatoes and green beans and cook for another 2 minutes.
2 Add the frozen peas, artichoke hearts, turmeric, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper and cook for 2 minutes more.
3 Add the rice and cook until it begins to be translucent. Pour in the vegetable broth.
4 Lightly stir the paella until all the ingredients are mixed and cook over medium or medium high heat for 20 minutes uncovered or until the rice is cooked all the way through. Don’t stir the paella while it is cooking! You want it to form a crust on the bottom. Add more vegetable broth if the rice is hard and dry.
5 Let it sit for at least 5 or 10 minutes. Squeeze lemon slices over the paella or serve with a lemon slice. Enjoy!
