So, I decided to cook some quinoa and make a vegetable/chicken stir fry this last weekend.
I have done many stir fry dishes over the years, however, this was my first time for cooking - and eating - quinoa. A picture of the finished dish is above. I used chopped brussel sprouts, garlic, yellow squash, and chicken. I previously cooked and chopped the chicken ahead of time (and stuck it in the freezer), so this was a very quick dinner. I thought I had zucchini squash to add, but sadly I was wrong.
This is the quinoa cooked and ready to go. We spooned the vegetables over the quinoa, instead of using rice, like I would have normally done.
... and the final dish - a little cheese on top always makes it better. Surprisingly, my daughter, Kimberly, really liked this dish. She especially loved the brussel sprouts. Who would have known?
Sans the Brussels sprouts, that looks SO tasty! Love quinoa.
