Quinoa wtih Mushrooms, Bell Peppers, Onions adn Broccoli

This is a healthy goodness in one bowl. I already had some recipes posted with quinoa and it is still my new favourite grain for now! Both my kids like eating it a lot and since it required a minimum time to prepare i do it often now. I try to mix it with different vegetables for a variety and everything i tried so far goes very well together with it. I recommend it highly!!!

Start by cooking quinoa according to package directions. Make sure ti rinse it under cold water for a few times to make sure water runs completely clear. To cook it i used organic chicken stock as a liquid to create and additional lever of flavor.

While quinoa is boiling away start with you vegetables. Wash and cut in slices one pack of Bella mushrooms (baby portabella), two bell pepper, one red onion and one packet of broccoli florets. Make sure all the pieces more or less the same size.

In a large saute pan start a few table spoons of olive oil and start pan frying mushrooms first. Once it is soft, mix it to make sure they don't brown just saute.

Next add onions and bell peppers and saute it with mushrooms for about 5 minutes.

Next move mushroom and peppers to the side of the pan and add broccoli. Let it saute for a few minutes and then add one cup of organic chicken stock to help broccoli steam for a few minutes.

Then mix all vegetables together check for seasons add salt and pepper if needed. I like my vegetable to have a bite to it meaning i don't like for it to be completely soft, make sure you don't over cook it.

Once quinoa is ready it will have the most wonderful shiny little pearl like grains.

Add it to the saute pan with all the vegetable mix it well and serve.

Enjoy!!!
