Name: Qunioa Stir-Fry with Vegetables
Ingredients: 3/4 cup quinoa (rinsed); 1/2 tsp salt (divided); 1 TB vegetable oil; 1 small carrot (thinly sliced); 1 medium red bell pepper (cored, seeded and chopped); 2 tsp grated ginger; 1 clove garlic (sliced); 1 small red chile (chopped (optional)); 2 cups snow peas (trimmed); 1/4 tsp black pepper; 1 egg (beaten); 4 ounces grilled chicken breast (chopped); 2 scallions (chopped); 1/2 cup cilantro; 1 TB soy sauce

Method

Place quinoa in a small saucepan with 3/4 cup water and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
Cover and cook, undisturbed, until quinoa absorbs water, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat, fluff with a fork and leave uncovered.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook carrot, stirring occasionally, until it softens, about 1 minute.
Add bell pepper, ginger, garlic and chile, if desired; cook, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes. Add peas, sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper and cook, stirring frequently, 1 minute.
Remove vegetables and return skillet to heat; add quinoa, along with egg. Cook, stirring constantly, until egg is evenly distributed, about 2 minutes.
Add vegetables, chicken, scallions, cilantro and soy sauce; cook 1 minute more.
Divide stir-fry among 4 bowls; serve warm.
