Ingredients
Method
- Heat a little olive oil or coconut oil in a pan over medium high and sauté broccoli and mushrooms till cooked, about 5 minutes. (Mine took closer to 10 minutes.)
- Add spinach, stir, and remove from heat once slightly wilted.
- While the veggies are cooking rinse your quinoa in a mesh sieve and drain.
- Then combine quinoa, water, and milk in a sauce pan and bring to boiling. Immediately reduce heat to a simmer and cover. Let cook 8-10 minutes, or until done, stirring occasionally. Quinoa is done when you can see the little ring around each grain and it no longer crunches when you bite into it.
- Once quinoa is finished, add veggies and combine. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve topped with cheese and green onions.
