Baked Quinoa+ Eggs

027

Ah-ha! I can now cross off the name of a recipe from my Recipe To-Do List.

Quinoa Egg Bake — Edible Perspective

It’s completed! And oh, so, rewarding. I’m going to be making this again soon.

I modified a few things, based on what I had.

If you like quinoa, then this recipe is for you. And if you don’t like quinoa, you can probably sub a different grain (bulghur maybe?), although I haven’t tried it myself and so can’t personally vouch for it. But let me know if you try another grain it it’s place!

Baked Quinoa + Eggs
Modified from Edible Perspective

  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1/4 cup mushrooms, chopped
  • 1/4 cup canned diced tomatoes (use fresh if you can!)
  • 1/4 cup chopped spinach
  • 1 tablespoon almond milk (or other liquid to thin it out)
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 3/4 tsp dried basil (or sub other dried herbs- thyme, parsley, etc…)
  • A pinch of salt + a pinch of pepper
  1. Preheat oven to 375. Grease a small dish. (I used one that could hold 2.5 cups)
  2. Beat the egg and egg white together in a small bowl. Dump in all other ingredients.
  3. Pour into greased dish
  4. Bake for ~35 min, until golden brown.
Mmmmm… perfection. I’m already thinking of ways I could make this even better. I’m thinking of corn, real tomatoes (not the canned)….

Abolutely worth the 35 min of oven time.

    

 

     



And while it was baking, I pricked a potato with a fork and stuck it in the oven as well. I’m not quite sure what I’m going to do with it… I’ll probably end up baking it into a bread of some sort.

Happy Saturday!
