Ingredients | Quinoa Nutrients Chart

1 cup quinoa

3 cups water

1 pinch salt

3 tablespoons olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 red bell pepper, chopped

½ cup corn kernels

½ teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon dried oregano

salt and pepper to taste

2 green onions, chopped

Directions

Bring the quinoa, water, and 1 pinch of salt to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender, about 20 minutes. Once done, drain a mesh strainer, and set aside.

Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, and cook until the garlic softens and the aroma mellows, about 2 minutes. Add the red pepper, and corn; continue cooking until the pepper softens, about 5 minutes. Season with cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper, and cook for 1 minute more, then stir in the cooked quinoa and green onions. Serve hot or cold.
