directions

  • Rinse the quinoa in a strainer.
  • In a small saucepan, add the quinoa and 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then cover and reduce heat to simmer until water is absorbed, about 10-15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and garlic and onion.
  • Cook the garlic in the oil until the edges of the garlic turns very light brown, being careful not to burn the garlic (reduce heat to low if necessary).
  • When the quinoa is done cooking, add it to the skillet along with the spinach.
  • Stir it together until the spinach wilts.
  • Add the crumbled feta cheese and stir to combine. Makes 2 servings.
