Directions:

1. For stew: Heat oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; sauté until soft, stirring often, about 6 minutes. Mix in paprika and next 5 ingredients. Add broth, tomatoes, and lemon juice. Bring to boil. Add carrots. Simmer over medium-low heat until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.).
2. For quinoa: Rinse quinoa; drain. Melt butter with oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and carrot. Cover; cook until vegetables begin to brown, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Add garlic, salt, and turmeric; sauté 1 minute. Add quinoa; stir 1 minute. Add 2 cups water. Bring to boil; reduce heat to medium-low. Cover; simmer until liquid is absorbed and quinoa is tender, about 15 minutes.
