I don't know if you read my main blog, or just the recipes here - but our family is making a drastic change to our diet. We are eliminating wheat, dairy, and all heavily processed items and synthetic products - including sugar. So, time to embrace other grains, and I'm starting with the king - quinoa. This is super-duper health food, and has too many benefits to list here. Check out the link below if you don't believe me. I've cooked quinoa before, but only plain, and I didn't think I'd have a chance of converting the kids that way. Hence the spiced version...Ingredients:
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 tsp brown mustard seeds
- 1/4 tsp turmeric
- 1 tsp ground coriander (cilantro)
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1 cup quinoa (washed)
- 2 cups chicken stock (or salted water)
- fresh coriander to garnish
