Prep Time 5 mins
Cook Time 25 mins
Total Time 30 mins

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 4 large carrots peeled and diced
  • 1 bag broccoli florets
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup red cabbage
  • 1/2 yellow onion
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 3 eggs whisked
  • 4 tbsp coconut aminos or soy sauce
  • To taste: salt pepper, red pepper flakes
  • Toppings: crushed peanuts and green onions

Instructions
 

  • Cook quinoa according to package
  • In a large skillet, add broccoli, carrots, 1-2 cups water (enough to cover broccoli about halfway up). Bring water to a boil, and steam-sautee vegetables for 5-8 minutes, or until vegetables are soft.
  • Set broccoli and carrots aside, add 1 tbsp oil to skillet and saute onions and garlic for 2-3 minutes. Add in peas and cabbage, and saute for another 2-3 minutes.
  • Add in cooked quinoa, broccoli and carrots, as well as coconut aminos and spices. Mix until well combined
  • Make a hole in the center of the skillet (push aside "rice" so you can see the bottom of skillet). Add in 3 eggs. Let sit for 1 minute, then gentle stir in a small circle (do not stir into the entire dish yet). Do this until egg is mostly cooked, then combine with the rest of the rice.
  • Cook covered for 3-5 minutes. Top with crushed peanuts and green onions & enjoy! :)
