    Qunioa Stuffing aka Broccoli Circles


    Source of Recipe

    Recipe Introduction


    Bob's Red Mill's website says you can use this to stuff a turkey. My kids used to love eating broccoli pieces but cannot anymore because of one daughter's food intolerance. When this recipe cooks, the parsley pieces sticking to the celery gives the appearance of broccoli. When the kids saw it, they called it broccoli and then they saw the quinoa and said, "circles." So, "broccoli circles."

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup quinoa grain
    1 cup broth -- I use homemade chicken broth.
    1 cup water
    margarine -- I use ghee
    1/2 medium onion
    3-6 celery stalks (depends on preference - I use 3; and this could be
    subbed with other veggies if you want, like maybe zucchini, etc.)
    1 tsp sage
    1 tsp sea salt
    1 tablespoon parsley or cilantro flakes

    Recipe



    Bring water and broth to boil. Add quinoa. Bring to boil.

    Cook over medium heat for 12 minutes OR until quinoa has absorbed all the liquid. (When cooked, quinoa will "pop" open, thus creating the "circles.")

    In a skillet, melt the margarine or ghee, cook chopped onion and celery about 10 minutes. (I dice the celery in smaller pieces) In a large bowl, combine the quinoa, onion mix and the spices.
