A holiday Quinoa recipe

Ingredients:
Quinoa
Cauliflower (cut into small florets)
Finely chopped Onions
Cranberries
Walnuts
Oil
Salt
Parsley
Pepper

Directions:
==========

1. Cook quinoa like you normally do.
For this one I generally add extra water and drain the remaining water to get a pearl by pearl consistency.

2. Heat oil in other pan, add onion and saute over medium-low heat until golden. Onion is optional – most of the times I make it without onion.
It tastes good, try it 🙂 .

3. Once onions are cooked, add cauliflower. Cook till cauliflower is just tender.

4. Meanwhile quinoa should be done, add it to the cauliflower mixture. Also now add cranberries, walnuts and parsley.

5. Add salt, pepper toss everything and then remove from heat.

You can add red chilli pepper flakes and make it spicier, but for us this works great as is.

?Notes :
1. You can cook it in olive oil or regular oil. But sesame oil gives it a nice flavor.
2. Original recipe calls for fresh parsley, I have added dried parsley every time.
