Quinoa and Vegetable Stir-Fry#
Ingredients:
- 1 cup quinoa
- 2 cups water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1 zucchini, diced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 carrot, sliced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
- Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the quinoa, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the quinoa is cooked and the water is absorbed. Fluff the quinoa with a fork and set aside.
- In a large pan or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion is translucent.
- Add the bell pepper, zucchini, broccoli, and carrot to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. Pour the sauce over the vegetables and stir to combine.
- Add the cooked quinoa to the pan and stir to combine with the vegetables and sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until everything is heated through.
- Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
