It's really good. Although I love anything that has a fried egg on top that oozes down the yellowy goodness of the yoke on everything. I'm probably biased.
The recipe is something my sister came up with after reading an article. It's quinoa, spinach and a fried egg. Pretty simple. That's how she made it, anyway. I added a little of the smoked seasoning from Trader Joe's that I like. But don't tell her. I don't want to hurt her feelings.
So here's the recipe...you can have this done in about 5 minutes if you already have the quinoa cooked. If not, it only takes 10-15 minutes to cook it then you can start. So maybe 20 minutes total? More if you're slow. I don't know if you are or not. But you could be.
Ok, here we go...
1 cup of quinoa, cooked
1 cup spinach, uncooked
1 egg
some salt maybe or whatever kind of spices you like
a little olive oil
Spray a pan with a bit of oil or use some olive oil for sauteing and add the quinoa. Stir it around a bit to break up any clumps. Add the spinach and cook until the spinach wilts. Don't overcook the spinach. It's gross. It should be green and still look like spinach. Add some salt or seasonings if you want. Take all of it and put it on your plate. Clean out the pan. Yes, I know. It breaks your cooking rhythm to wipe out the pan with a paper towel. Use a second pan. I don't care. I don't have to do your dishes.
Add some olive oil, heat up the pan and add the egg. If you don't know how to fry an egg with a soft yolk, here's your chance to learn! By trial and error. I'm not going to teach you here. Although I will suggest using a bit of seasoning.
Once the egg is cooked to your liking tip it onto the top of the quinoa/spinach mound. When you break open the egg the yolk will spill out onto everything else. That's my favorite part.
And it's not even remotely taco related.
