Ingredients

  • 1 head garlic
  • 1 cup of quinoa
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup chopped red pepper
  • 1/2 cup chopped mushrooms
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Chop the top off the garlic and peel away the loose outside paper. Drizzle olive oil on cloves, wrap in foil, and roast for 20-30 minutes, or until golden. Let cool.
  • Cook quinoa according to directions on package. While quinoa is cooking, heat a skillet on medium heat and add olive oil. Add red pepper and mushrooms and saute until soft, about 6-8 minutes. When quinoa is done, fluff with a fork and add peppers and mushrooms. Squeeze the entire head of garlic cloves into the quinoa, mashing some with a fork and leaving others whole. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
