Lucky for me, quinoa happens to be incredibly healthy, high in fiber, gluten-free, and SO easy to make!

Servings: 8
Points: 1 per serving
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion, minced
- 1 medium garlic clove, minced
- 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
- 2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
- 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes (optional - I used them!)
- 4 cups baby spinach, packed, coarsely chopped (I didn't chop it)
- 1/2 tsp salt
Add quinoa to skillet; cook, stirring frequently, until quinoa starts to turn golden brown, about 2 minutes.
Add broth, black pepper and red pepper flakes to skillet; bring to a boil. Cover skillet and reduce heat to low and simmer for 13 minutes; stir in spinach.
Cover skillet and cook until spinach and quinoa are tender and liquid is absorbed, about 3 to 5 minutes; season with salt.
Yields about 1/2 cup per serving.
