Spanish Rice -
saute onions, cilantro, and 2 Tblspns of lemon in 1 Tblspn of Olive Oil
add 1 cup of quinoa and lightly brown, add 1/2 cup of your favorite hot sauce ( I use Julian's mild) and 1 cup low sodium chicken broth or water, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes or until tender. TASTES JUST LIKE IT!!
Fried Rice -
Saute onions & peas in 1 Tsp of Seasame oil and 1 Tblspn of Olive Oil
add 3 eggs and scamble in with sauted items, remove and set aside in bowl.
Brown 2 cups of quinoa in same sautee pan, add 3 Tblsp of Soy Suace, add 2 cups water or low sodium chicken broth and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes, add back the scramble mixture and more soy or teriyaki sauce to taste.

Protein Pancakes
1/4 cup of egg white
1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
1/2 banana
1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed
1/4 cup of your fave fruit--I use pineapple
cook on a heated griddle on a very low flame. Certainly not IHOP but ....I like them.0 -
Thanks! Do you put anything on them like honey etc?0

agave but usually nothing---the fruit makes them sweet enough. Some people also do them in a waffle iron. Good luck!0
