This recipe is a super easy and quick way to incorporate whole grains packed with protein into your diet. You can throw in veggies that need to be used and spice to suit your mood :) It's a flexible dish that you can throw together in a jiffy. I usually substitute water for broth and add extra seasoning. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups quinoa |
3 cups chicken broth |
3/4 cup frozen spinach |
1/3 onion, diced |
1 teaspoon minced garlic (depending on how garlicky you like it!) |
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning |
salt (to taste) |
6 ounces tuna (splurge on the good kind, it really tastes better) |
1/2 cup cheese (optional) |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients except cheese and tuna in a medium sauce pan.
2. Cover with lid and bring to a boil.
3. Turn down heat and simmer for 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and add cheese and tuna. Enjoy!
