Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups quinoa
  • 3 cups vegetable or vegan chicken-style stock
  • 1-2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1.5 cups chickpeas, canned or pre-cooked
  • 1 cup sweet potato or butternut squash, diced and steamed
  • 1 cup green beans, steamed
  • handful of pine nuts, toasted or raw (optional)
  • 1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Directions
  1. Rinse or wash the quinoa according to the directions on the packet.
  2. Bring the stock to the boil in a large saucepan or stockpot, add the quinoa and garlic, and let simmer for approximately 15 minutes until all the water is absorbed and the quinoa is soft but a little 'al dente'.
  3. Add in the chickpeas, green beans, sweet potato or squash, and pine nuts, and stir through until heated well.
  4. Stir the parsley through just before serving.
