Instructions
- Rinse 3 cups of quinoa and allow time for the water to drain thoroughly.
- In a large sauce pan, toast quinoa over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until quinoa makes popping sounds, about 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer quinoa to a bowl and set aside.
- Saute 3 cloves of garlic and 1/2 of a yellow onion in 2-3 tablespoons of avocado oil (or other) until softened.
- Add the quinoa to the mixture and stir until combined.
- Add 5 cups of organic vegetable or chicken stock.
- Bring to a boil. Turn heat down to simmer, cover, and cook for 13-15 minutes or until you see the little circles separating from the seeds. Salt and pepper to taste.
- I typically have a bowl on hand in the fridge and freeze what is left.
Notes
- We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.
