Delicious Gluten Free Dinner Recipe: Quinoa & Vegetable Stir-Fry

Ingredients

• 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
• 2 cups vegetable broth
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1 cup snap peas
• 2 carrots, julienned
• 2 tablespoons gluten free soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and vegetable broth, then bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the quinoa is fluffy and all the broth is absorbed.
2. While the quinoa cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing for about 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
3. Stir in the diced red bell pepper, broccoli florets, snap peas, and julienned carrots. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender yet crisp.
4. Once the vegetables are cooked, add the cooked quinoa to the skillet, followed by the gluten free soy sauce, sesame oil, and ground ginger. Mix everything together until well combined.
5. Season with salt and pepper to taste, cooking for an additional 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
6. Remove from heat and serve warm, garnished with sesame seeds.
