One-Pot Mediterranean Quinoa with Spinach & Chickpeas #vegan #chickpea

There's nothing more terrible than plunking down in the wake of a monotonous day to a magnificent dinner you simply cooked, just to understand that your work isn't done at this point. DISHES. This one-pot dinner has everything. Sound fats, dim verdant greens, filling fiber, plant-based protein and TONS of incredible flavor.

It begins by basically sautéing some garlic, shallots and red pepper pieces in a small piece of olive oil. At that point you include your flavors, some white quinoa, a few olives and some hacked sun dried tomatoes and afterward you simply leave the entire thing to cook for around 20 minutes. At the point when its set, the quinoa will be feathery, the pot will be fragrant and you'll simply mix in your spinach and chickpeas.

Not exclusively is this dish vivid and lively, it's one of those "plates of mixed greens" that improves with age. That sounds abnormal, however I really found that the more drawn out this sat and marinated, the more articulated the flavor.
