QUINOA WITH CREAMY GARLIC SAUCE RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Quinoa With Creamy Garlic Sauce Recipe - Food.com image

This vegan quinoa recipe uses zucchini and coconut milk as the base for a creamy garlic sauce. If you haven’t tried cooking with quinoa before, it is very easy to make if you follow my instructions. The grain has a slightly nutty taste, and it is very popular right now for vegans and vegetarians because of its protein profile. It has all the essential amino acids in one food, which is helpful for those who don’t eat a wide variety of healthy vegan foods. If raw garlic is too strong for you, roast it before putting it in the sauce.

Total Time 40 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup quinoa (dry measure)
1 zucchini
2 garlic cloves
1/2 onion
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast (optional)
1/2 cup coconut milk
1 pinch sea salt
1 pinch ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Steps:

  • Start by cooking the quinoa. Rinse it with water and drain, then add 2 cups water and a sprinkle of sea salt to the water. Bring this to a boil, then turn down to simmer for 20-30 minutes. When you see the swirl of the grains, with a translucent center, the quinoa is fully cooked. It should be fluffy if you don't stir the quinoa while it cooks.
  • Make the sauce while the quinoa is cooking by putting the rest of the ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend the zucchini with enough coconut milk and/or water to get it smooth. Add the garlic and onion in stages to make sure the sauce stays smooth.
  • Serve the cooked quinoa topped with the sauce alone, or add some chopped vegetables, steamed or raw.

GOOD SAUCES MIX WITH QUINOA? : EATCHEAPANDHEALTHY
Quinoa is so versatile that you can do pretty much anything with it, flavor-wise. One go-to for me is either using chicken (or whatever kind of) broth or stock, or seasoning the water with salt and/or soy sauce, and sometimes adding whole or chopped garlic, onion, mushrooms, and hot peppers until it tastes right and not too salty.
