I
am not really sure about the term “Bus do minute”( just 2 min) cooking concept but yes “Bus 12 Minutes"
I surly can buy that argument.
So
here is a simple brunch recipe with quinoa and brown or wild rice.
Ingredients:
½
cup quinoa
½
cup brown rice
½
Onions chopped (optional)
½
tsp Ginger chopped
1
Tomato
1
green bell pepper
1 Red or yellow bell pepper
¼
bunch Parsley or coriander chopped
1
packet taco seasoning spice mix
Salt
to taste
¼
tsp Black pepper
4
tbsp olive oil
I
added 2 jalapeno peppers, totally optional
Other 'add on' vegetables are mushrooms, celery, zucchini.
Be creative and try adding olives, sprinkle Parmesan cheese( after your dish is done)
black bean and Oh! the list is endless.
If
you have a sweet tooth like me then please do not hesitate to add 2 to 4 dates or/and one small
apple chopped
Method:
Boil
brown rice and quinoa together
In
pressure cooker takes about 10 min
On
stove top maybe around 20-25 min
In
olive oil, sauté ginger and onions. When
onions are translucent add chopped tomatoes. Do not wait for tomatoes to
soften. Add rest of the vegetables and
spices
Let
it cook for 10 minutes with no lid on, you want to leave them little crunchy.
Incorporate
rice and vegetables and add chopped walnuts raisins and sun flower seeds about ¼
of a cup. Do not cook with dry nuts. ( this can be optional too)
And
you are done!
Enjoy
your healthy brunch in a bowl.
Suggestions
for My Indian friends : Instead of
yogurt why don’t you try some salsa with it!
PS:
(If you add mushrooms, I suggest you sauté
them separately so the raw, weird smell disappears )
