Vegan Quinoa Curry Bowl
Ready in just 15 minutes, this nourishing grain dish combines two time-saving heroes—quinoa and frozen veggies—with delectable results. Curry powder and granulated onion is added to the quinoa cooking water to boost the flavor early; then it’s just a matter of adding veggies, garlic, fresh ginger, more curry powder, and a little tahini.
This quick and easy dish uses “stir-fry” frozen vegetables, along with fresh ginger and garlic. Frozen veggies have come a long way, and they can be a healthy and delicious meal addition. Look for 100% vegetables without any added salt or oil.
INGREDIENTS
- ¾ cup quinoa (dry)
- 1 teaspoon granulated onion
- 1½ teaspoon curry powder
- 1 bag (16 ounces) frozen “stir-fry blend” vegetables
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic (4 to 5 medium cloves)
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons tahini (ground sesame paste)
- ½ avocado (optional)
- Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
- Stir the quinoa, onion, and ½ tsp curry powder together with 1½ cups of water in a medium saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered with a tight-fitting lid, for 15 minutes.
- While the quinoa is cooking, place the frozen vegetables into a skillet or soup pot on medium-low heat, and cover so the vegetables can thaw and soften. Stir occasionally, adding a little water if needed. While the vegetables are warming, mince the garlic and ginger.
- When the vegetables have thawed and softened (5 to 10 minutes), increase the heat to medium-high and stir in the garlic, ginger, and 1 tsp curry powder, cooking 1 to 2 more minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the tahini, adding a little water as needed to mix thoroughly.
- Stir the quinoa into the vegetables. Serve as is or topped with diced avocado and/or sesame seeds, if desired.
