This is my own recipe. I just sort of threw a bunch of things that I had in my fridge/pantry together, & it ended up being pretty good!
Ingredients:
-1 cup (dry) Quinoa prepared according to package directions in 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
-1-2 Chicken breasts, cubed & cooked
-1 can white kidney beans
-1 can whole kernel sweet corn
-1 diced tomato, or red bell pepper
-1 onion, diced
- 2-3 cloves of garlic, diced
- 2 cups roughly chopped fresh spinach (or 1 cup fresh cilantro, chopped)
-1-2 tsp cumin
-1-2 tsp cayenne pepper
-1-2 tsp crushed red pepper flake
Directions:
Combine Quinoa with chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed.
Add cooked chicken, tomatoes (red pepper), corn, kidney beans, and spinach (cilantro). Stir until spinach (cilantro) is wilted and the beans & corn are warmed through. In a separate pan, sautee onions in olive oil until tender. Add garlic & cook for 1 more minute. Add onions & garlic to Quinoa mixture. Add cumin, cayenne pepper, and red pepper flake to taste, depending on how spicy you like it. :) Stir & mix until completely & evenly incorporated. Dish up & serve! Enjoy!
