Ingredients
  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 2 cups broth
  • 4 teaspoons my homemade all purpose seasoning - divided
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • okra - sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion - peeled and cut in chunks
  • 5 ounces grape tomatoes
Instructions
  1. You can rinse the quinoa if you want. In medium pot bring quinoa, broth, and 2 teaspoons of my homemade all purpose seasoning to a boil then cover and simmer on low heat for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes, then fluff.
  2. In large skillet saute onions and okra in olive oil for 3-4 minutes and sprinkle a little seasoning over vegetables (about 2 teaspoons). Add tomatoes and saute for one minute.
  3. The great thing about this recipe is you can use just about any vegetables you have on hand. Just remember to not overcook the vegetables...onions, okra, carrots, green beans, etc. will need to cook longer than broccoli, asparagus and tomatoes. So add those vegetables in, a minute or two before the others are done.
  4. Mix quinoa and vegetables together in serving bowl.
  5. Serve hot.
