## **What You’ll Need**
* **1 cup quinoa** (make sure to rinse it well!)
* **2 cups water or vegetable broth** (to make it extra yummy)
* **2 tablespoons olive oil** (or any oil you like)
* **1 onion** (chopped up)
* **2 garlic cloves** (minced)
* **1 bell pepper** (pick your favorite color and slice it thin)
* **1 carrot** (thinly sliced)
* **1 cup broccoli florets**
* **1 zucchini** (sliced)
* **1 cup snap peas or green beans**
* **2 tablespoons soy sauce** (or tamari if you want it gluten-free)
* **1 tablespoon lemon or lime juice** (for that little zing)
* **Salt and pepper** (to taste)
* **Fresh herbs** (like parsley or cilantro for a pop of color)
* **Optional toppings:** Sesame seeds, crushed nuts, or a pinch of chili flakes if you like a bit of heat!
## **Let’s Get Cooking!**
### **Step 1: Cooking the Quinoa!**
Start by rinsing the quinoa under cold water (this helps remove any bitterness). In a pot, bring your water or broth to a boil, add the quinoa, give it a quick stir, then lower the heat. Cover and let it simmer for around 15 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed. Once done, fluff it up with a fork, and set it aside. Easy, right?
### **Step 2: Time for the Veggie Party!**
While the quinoa is cooking, heat your olive oil in a large pan or wok over medium heat. Toss in the chopped onion and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until it turns soft and starts to smell sweet and delicious. Add the garlic and stir for another minute – but keep an eye on it so it doesn’t burn!
Next, throw in all your veggies – bell pepper, carrot, broccoli, zucchini, snap peas (or green beans). Stir everything around and let it cook for about 5-7 minutes. You want them to be tender but still have that lovely crunch. Think of it like a colorful veggie dance happening in your pan!
### **Step 3: Add Some Flavor!**
Pour in the soy sauce and squeeze that lemon or lime juice over the veggies. Stir well to make sure everything gets coated in that tasty sauce. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. And if you’re in the mood for a little adventure, add some chili flakes for a spicy kick!
### **Step 4: Mix It All Up!**
Now, it’s time to bring everything together. Add the cooked quinoa to your veggie mix. Gently stir so all the flavors mingle together. Let it cook for another 2-3 minutes, just until everything is warm and perfectly combined.
### **Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!**
Scoop your delicious stir-fry into bowls. Top with fresh herbs and maybe a sprinkle of sesame seeds or chopped nuts for that extra crunch.
## **A Few Fun Tips**
* **Use What You Have:** Don’t worry if you don’t have all the veggies listed – this recipe is super flexible! Use whatever you have in the fridge.
* **Add More Protein:** Want more protein? Toss in some tofu, chickpeas, or even grilled chicken.
* **Perfect for Meal Prep:** Make a big batch, and you’ve got lunch or dinner sorted for a few days!
And there you go – a simple, wholesome Quinoa and Vegetable Stir-Fry that’s perfect for any day of the week! Give it a try, and I bet it’ll become one of your favorites. Happy cooking and enjoy every bite!
