Ingredients

  • 1 cup white quinoa (yields about 3 cups cooked)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil*
  • 2 cups cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 4-6 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ tsp dried thyme

*May substitute with sacha inchi oil. Due to sacha inchi oil’s sensitivity to heat, we recommend cooking on low heat for 6-8 minutes in Step 2.

Optional

  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ​1-2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese to garnish
    (for a healthy alternative, try “cashew cheese“!)
