Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Veggies: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sweet potato, onion, bell pepper, and garlic, tossing to coat. Cover and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until potatoes are a little soft (but not cooked through).
  2. Spinach: Add spinach, stir, and cook until wilted down, just a minute or two.
  3. Quinoa: Stir in quinoa, pour in broth, and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for 10 to 15 minutes until quinoa is cooked. If there is excess broth in the pan at the end, let the skillet cook uncovered to evaporate moisture.
  4. Eggs: Meanwhile, cook eggs however you like them!
  5. Serve: Serve veggie skillet topped with eggs and sprinkled with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
