This is a dish that I actually let boil down until it's mushy to make it into baby food! I tasted the 'end result' one day and thought 'This would make a great main course, if it wasn't pureed!' LOL!!
Ingredients:
1 each large red, green, yellow pepper, chopped into med size squares
2 dark green zucchini, sliced down the middle lengthwise and then into half-moons
2 med potatoes, chunked
2 cups carrots, chopped
1 small cooking yellow onion, diced coarsely
small crown of broccoli, cut into pieces
2 cubes veggie stock or equivalent in liquid (sorry, i have no clue how much that is)
1/2 cup of quinoa, washed throughly and drained
enough water to fill the pot your using about 3/4 to the top. trust me on this one. you'll probably end up adding more water anyways ;)
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
1. It can't get any easier people. Add the veggie stock cube to the boiling pot of water
2. Toss in all the carrots and potatoes first. Add the quinoa because it'll take a while to cook. (like rice)
3. Once those veggies are almost cooked, toss in the remaining ingredients. Add more water if needed.
4. When finished the quinoa will look like it separated into little swirls.
5. Season with S & P to taste.
6. This dish freezes well and, if you overboil it into a nice mush, makes great baby food!!!!
7. * feel free to toss in some cooked chicken or stew beef. My friend added a can of peeled stewing tomatoes for some variety. MMMmmmm!
