Ingredients: 4 tsp canola oil 2 eggs, beaten 1/2 cup chopped onion 2 tbsp chopped green onion (optional more for garnish) 1/2 cup chopped carrots 1 tbsp minced garlic 4 cups cooked quinoa 3/4 tsp salt 1/4 tsp black pepper 1 tbsp butter 1/4 cup braggs amino acids or gluten free soy sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
Cook your Quinoa according to package directions. It can be cooked in vegetable broth instead of water for added flavor. So It's 2 parts broth to one part quinoa simmering until all broth is absorbed. Set aside.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tsp oil and 1 tbsp butter, 1 TB Garlic, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the remaining 2 tbsp oil to the pan, and raise the heat to medium-high. Sauté the onion, green onion, and carrots until tender - about 2-3 minutes.
Move to the side of the pan. Add the beaten eggs to the skillet and scramble the eggs until firm. Mix together the quinoa, scrambled eggs, Salt, and pepper, and veggies stirring well. Add the braggs amino acids or gluten free soy sauce to the mixture. Let cook for a few minutes, then flip over.
Cook for another few minutes til a little crispy. Stir together. Top with optional green onions for garnish and serve!
