Bump!!!

This week made a new quinoa combo:

2 tbsp. coconut oil or olive oil
1 tsp sugar
1 small sweet onion, diced
1 cup white quinoa
1 can black beans
1 cup thai chil-lime cashews (found at trader joes, u could do without or use plain if you wish)
1 cup frozen mango chunks
2 tsp honey
1 tbsp. mustard
2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp cumin
1/2 cup water

1. Caramelize onions with oil and sugar, slow cook on medium-low for about 30-40 minutes or until onions have nice caramel color.
2. cook quinoa according to package directions.
3. In a blender: mango and remaining ingredients.
4. Stir rinsed black beans, mango sauce, and cashews in with quinoa, heat on low for 2-3 minutes, serve!

YUM!

will use these!

Bump! I've bought some quinoa but had no idea what to do with it!

When I make black bean burgers I add in quinoa for an extra protein boost and it also gives it a nice meaty texture. 6 patties at only 150 calories each with 7g of protein

1 Can Black Beans rinsed and drained
2 Minced garlic cloves
1 Tsp olive oil
1 Egg
1 Egg White
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1 cup cooked quinoa (I prefer the red type but I'm sure the regular one is fine)
Any desired seasonings/spices

1.) Blend black beans, olive oil, and garlic in a food processor or blender until it forms a thick paste.
2.) Add in eggs, bread crumbs, and quinoa and mix thoroughly.
3.) Form into 6 patties and fry/grill over medium heat for 4 minutes on each side.

VOILA!
