Quinoa Veggie "Fried Rice"

Quinoa. 

A superfood.

High in protein, a good source of fiber, magnesium, and iron. Also, it it a good source of calcium!

Getting in your fruits and vegetables everyday is so important. You need to feed your body with the right fuel to make it run.

I often find that those who have a hard time eating a ton of vegetables really like stir-frys. It gives you the opportunity to customize the vegetables (and meat if you chose).

Let's get started!!

2 Tbs EVOO, divided

2 eggs, beaten

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 small onion, diced

2 cups cooked quinoa

1 Tbs freshly grated ginger

3 Tbs soy sauce

2 scallions

2-3 cups of your choice of vegetables (I used Organic broccoli, carrots, cauliflower & zucchini)

Heat 1 Tbs oil in a large skillet over low heat.

Add the eggs and scramble. Set aside.

Heat remaining Tbs of oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the garlic and onion and cook, stirring constantly, for about 5 minutes.

Add vegetables and cook until tender, about 4-5 minutes.

 Add cooked quinoa and stir until heated through.

Add ginger and soy sauce. Toss to combine and cook until heated through.

Stir in scallions and eggs.
