Guacamole Style Quinoa Recipes

GUACAMOLE-STYLE QUINOA

Guacamole-Style Quinoa image

My husband and I are following the guidelines of the Virgin Diet (no gluten, soy, eggs, dairy, peanuts, corn, or sugar) and wanted to experiment with some new ways to eat quinoa. We love guacamole, and decided to transfer the ingredients into this healthy and flavorful quinoa dish.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 teaspoon olive oil
½ sweet onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
1 cup quinoa
1 lime, juiced
1 ¾ cups chicken stock, or as needed
6 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
6 grape tomatoes, quartered
1 avocado, cubed
1 jalapeno pepper, diced

Steps:

Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir onion and garlic in the hot oil until slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir quinoa into onion mixture and cook until quinoa is lightly browned, about 30 seconds.
Squeeze lime juice into a 2-cup measuring cup; pour in enough chicken stock to make 2 cups liquid. Pour chicken stock mixture over quinoa and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover saucepan, and simmer until liquid is absorbed and quinoa is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat and chill in the refrigerator, about 1 hour.
Fold cilantro, tomatoes, avocado, and jalapeno pepper into quinoa mixture. Return quinoa to refrigerator for flavors to blend or serve immediately.
