====== Veggie Fried Quinoa ====== I love this dish, Marla loves this dish. Nick really does not like it. It's really quick, very inexpensive, delicious, healthy - who raised him? It feels a little wrong to use powdered ginger in a little bottle from McCormick - but it's supposed to be a quick meal and who has time to grind (?) fresh ginger and I think the flavor actually melds better with the fine powder - plus I don't measure - just sprinkle away until I'm sure I definitely got a 1/2 teaspoon. I don't measure the soy sauce either... https://www.simplyquinoa.com/10-minute-vegetable-quinoa-fried-rice/ ===== Ingredients ===== * 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil or coconut oil * 1 - 2 garlic cloves minced * 3 - 4 cups cooked quinoa chilled * 1 16oz bag organic frozen veggies, any variety * 2 large organic eggs * 2 - 3 tablespoons soy sauce * 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger ===== Directions ===== - Heat the oil and garlic in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat, stirring until fragrant about 30 seconds. - Add quinoa and veggies and cook until starting to soften and coated in flavoring, about 2 minutes. - Push this mixture to the side of the pan and crack both eggs directly into the hot skillet. Scramble with a fork until cooked through. Stir into quinoa-veggie mixture. - Pour soy sauce over pan, sprinkle with ginger and toss to combine, cooking for another minute or two until nice and hot. - Taste and adjust seasonings accordingly. - Serve immediately and enjoy! originally submitted by mike on Aug 23, 2020 {{tag>mike}}
