Nutty Quinoa Hash

Vegetarian Recipe

Ingredients:

1 cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed

2 cups water

2 medium potatoes, diced

1 small onion, chopped

2 large stalks celery, chopped

1 small green bell pepper, chopped

1/2 small zucchini, chopped

1 can (16 oz) corn, or pre-cooked fresh or frozen corn

Favorite all-purpose seasoning such as a spicy Creole blend

At least 3 tablespoon crunchy peanut butter, or 3 tablespoon creamy

and 2 teaspoon chopped peanuts

 

 

Directions:

In a medium saucepan, bring the two cups of water to a boil over

medium-high heat. Add the quinoa, return to a boil, cover and reduce

heat to medium-low. Simmer until all water has been absorbed. Set

aside.

 

In a large skillet, heat olive or canola oil on medium heat. Add the

potatoes; cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are thoroughly

cooked and slightly crispy. Add the onion, celery, and bell pepper;

cook until each is slightly soft. Add zucchini and corn; cook until

zucchini is soft and corn is heated through. Add seasoning to taste.

Remove from heat. Add the peanut butter to the quinoa and stir until

thoroughly blended. Add chopped nuts, if using, and stir. Add the

quinoa to the vegetables and mix well. Recipe makes four to six

servings.
