Shrimp & Vegetable Quinoa Fried Rice

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups cooked quinoa
• 1/3 pound shrimp, peeled & deveined
• 1 cup snow peas, chopped into 1″ pieces
• 1 large bell pepper, chopped into bite sized pieces
• 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
• 1/2 cup onion, diced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 2 tablespoons organic, reduced sodium, gluten-free soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce (optional)
• Water for sauteing

Instructions

1. Spray a pan, over medium heat, with non-stick cooking spray. Add the eggs and swirl them around to cover the bottom of the pan. Cook until the edges begin to peel of the pan, about 1 – 2 minutes, and flip, cooking for 1 minute longer. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into bite sized pieces. Let cool.
2. Return the pan to the stove and add the vegetables and garlic. Add a splash of water (about 2 tablespoons) and toss. Continue to cook until the vegetables have softened, adding water as needed, 5 – 6 minutes.
3. While the veggies are cooking, heat a small saute pan over medium heat. Spray with non-stick cooking spray (or water) and add the shrimp. Cook 2 – 3 minutes per side until they’re cooked through.
4. Add the shrimp & quinoa to the vegetables and toss to combine. Stir in the soy sauce, spices and chili sauce and cook for another 2 – 3 minutes. Add the egg and stir to combine.
5. Serve immediately and enjoy!
