Quinoa with Veggies

By: feminiSh

"I love quinoa and I wanted to make something that was flavorful and filling. The vegetables can be changed to your liking! Try these: zucchini, carrots, celery, green bell pepper, red onion, or whatever you have hanging around your kitchen."

Original Recipe Yield 4 servings

Ingredients

1 cup quinoa
3 cups water
1 pinch salt
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1/2 cup corn kernels
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
salt and pepper to taste
2 green onions, chopped

Directions

Bring the quinoa, water, and 1 pinch of salt to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender, about 20 minutes. Once done, drain a mesh strainer, and set aside.
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, and cook until the garlic softens and the aroma mellows, about 2 minutes. Add the red pepper, and corn; continue cooking until the pepper softens, about 5 minutes. Season with cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper, and cook for 1 minute more, then stir in the cooked quinoa and green onions. Serve hot or cold.
