Quinoa W/ Leeks, Chard, and Tofu (Plus Other Fun Stuff!)
- 1 cup dry quinoa
- 1 leek
- 1 bunch chard leaves
- 2 bell peppers (I used 1 red, 1 yellow)
- 1 medium red onion
- 12 cup shredded carrot
- 2 cups asparagus
- firm tofu, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
- 1 (15 1/4 ounce) can sweet corn
- 14 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 14 cup white wine vinegar
- 12 cup sweet Thai sweet chili sauce
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons minced ginger
- salt and pepper
- Cut all veggies into desired size - I like them cut into pretty small pieces.
- Add 2 cups of water to the quinoa in a separate pan.
- Bring to boil, cover, turn to low heat or remove from heat, and let finish cooking.
- In a separate saucepan, saute ginger and garlic until soft, then add onions until translucent.
- Add peppers and leeks; saute until tender.
- Add olive oil, white wine vinegar, and thai chili sauce along the way.
- On a separate skillet, grill asparagus until slightly tender and grill tofu until slightly brown.
- Add the asparagus and tofu to the onions, peppers, and leeks.
- Add any remaining olive oil, white wine vinegar, and sweet thai chili sauce.
- Add carrots and chard, cover and let chard wilt.
- Finally, stir in corn (after rinsing to reduce sodium).
