This Quinoa Ki-Mao is a delicious twist on a classic favorite, packed with flavor and all the goodness of superfood quinoa. Perfect for tonight's dinner!

1

Start by rinsing the quinoa in cold water. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of quinoa with 2 cups of water and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes until the quinoa is fluffy and the water is absorbed. Set it aside to cool.

2

Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.

3

Add 3 minced garlic cloves and sauté for about 1 minute until aromatic but not browned.

4

Add 1 diced bell pepper, 1 sliced carrot, and 1 cup of broccoli florets. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

5

Push the vegetables to the side and crack 2 eggs into the skillet. Scramble them gently and cook until fully set, about 2-3 minutes.

6

Add the cooked quinoa to the skillet. Pour in 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and mix everything together thoroughly.

7

Squeeze the juice of 1 lime over the dish and stir in 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro.

8

Garnish with sliced green onions and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of sriracha for a spicy kick. Serve hot and enjoy your homemade Quinoa Ki-Mao!
