Healthy Asian-Inspired Quinoa and Egg Breakfast

A healthy breakfast of quinoa and eggs with Asian influence and a little spice! A much better alternative than wheat or other bad carbs and it has a ton of flavor.

Ingredients

• 2 cups water
• 1 cup quinoa, rinsed and drained
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 ½ teaspoons olive oil, or as needed
• 1 medium bell pepper, chopped
• 1 tablespoon sliced green onions
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 3 large eggs, whisked
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce, or to taste

Steps

1. Combine water, quinoa, and salt in a pot over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until all water has been absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and fluff with a fork.
2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour eggs into the skillet; cook and stir until eggs are set, about 5 minutes.
3. Mix the egg-vegetable mixture into the quinoa. Add soy sauce and sriracha and garnish with green onions.
