QUINOA WITH PEAS

QUINOA WITH PEAS

Pair quinoa with peas is a great idea. Other than being an extremely simple recipe to prepare, the flavors mix well perfectly resulting in a very pleasant taste to the palate.

The ingredients to match are 4: quinoa, peas, onion and walnuts. It was enough to read it to feel like preparing this dish. I have found it on Taste of Home – where are the readers themselves to send their families’ recipes.

Quinoa isn’t a cereal, but a seed rich in proteins. I don’t know the right proportions for a correct nutritional supply, but I believe this dish can be an unique dish for vegans.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 onion
  • 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen peas
  • salt
  • pepper
  • 2 Tbsp walnuts roughly cut

Instructions:

  1. Rinse quinoa and then put it into a pan with water. Cook for about 15 minutes or until water has evaporated.
  2. Using a fork, fluff uinoa.
  3. In a capacious pan, add oil and onions and let them cook until soft. Add peas and cook until tender.
  4. Add quinoa, salt e pepper.
  5. Add walnuts and mix. Serve warm or at room temperature.
  6. Buon appetito!
