Ingredients;
- 1/2 cup quinoa, rinsed. While not technically a grain quinoa acts like one. With twice the protein content of rice, it weighs in with considerably higher protein than its grain siblings.
- 1 small – medium yam, chopped into cubes, leave the skin on. Yams are a type of root that has a scaly brown skin and flesh that can be off white, brown or purplish.
- 2 cups broccoli, chopped
- 1 block tempeh, chopped into 1 inch cubes. Fermented soy is great for a healthy gut. Although it may be new to the west, tempeh is a soy food that has been eaten in Asia for hundreds of years.
- 1 Tbsp. coconut oil
- 1 tsp. turmeric. Anti-inflammatory properties!
- 1 tsp. cayenne. Metabolism booster.
- Nutritional yeast to top it off (rich in Vitamin B12). Yellow in color and with a nutty cheesy flavor, nutritional yeast is an inactive yeast.
In a pot, bring 1.25 cups water and quinoa to a boil, reduce to simmer and add sweet potato then cover the pot.
In a pan heat up 1/2 tbsp. coconut oil on low-med heat and add the tempeh and broccoli.
After 20 mins the quinoa and sweet potato will be cooked.
Turn off heat and add the quinoa & sweet potato to the pan.
Add spices & remaining oil mix it up, serve on a plate.
