Ingredients
1 1/4 c. quinoa, rinsed
2 Tbl. fragrant oil, such as walnut, sesame or olive oil
1 medium yellow or red onion, finely chopped
1 small head cauliflower, cut into small pieces and florets
1/2 c. dried cranberries
1/3 c. pine nuts, lightly toasted in a dry skillet
1/4 c. minced fresh parsley, or more to taste
Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Combine the quinoa with 2 1/2 c. water in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cover and simmer gently for 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed.
Meanwhile, heat 1 Tbl. of the oil in a wide skillet or stir-fry pan. Add the onion and saute over medium-low heat until golden. Add the cauliflower and about 1/3 c. water. Cover and cook for 5 minutes, or until the cauliflower is just tender.
Once the quinoa is done, add it to the cauliflower mixture, followed by the cranberries, pine nuts, and parsley. Toss together, then remove from the heat. Drizzle in the remaining oil and season with salt and pepper. Serve at once.
