Apple Quinoa Spoon Bread

• 2/3 cup water
• 1/3 cup quinoa, rinsed
• 1 tablespoon canola oil
• 1 small apple, peeled and diced
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 small parsnip, peeled and diced
• 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
• 1-1/4 teaspoons salt, divided
• 1 tablespoon minced fresh sage
• 3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 large egg, room temperature
• 1-1/2 cups 2% milk, divided

1. Preheat oven to 375u0b0. In a small saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add quinoa. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until liquid is absorbed, 12-15 minutes. Fluff with a fork; cool slightly.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat; saute apple, onion and parsnip with celery seed and 1/2 teaspoon salt until softened, 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in sage.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt. In another bowl, whisk together egg and 1 cup milk. Add to cornmeal mixture, stirring just until moistened. Fold in quinoa and apple mixture.
4. Transfer to a greased 8-in. square baking dish. Pour remaining milk over top.
5. Bake, uncovered, until edges are golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
