green peas

water

Instructions
Start by rinsing the quinoa under running water to remove the outer bitter coat.
Put the 1 cup quinoa, the frozen peas with the 2 cup+3 tbsp water, the salt+pepper and the oil into a medium pan. Cover and bring to a boil.
When it starts boiling, bring down to a simmer and check the water levels every 5 minutes.
When the water has disappeared from the top of the quinoa, turn off the heat and let it steam (while covered) for an additional 15-20 minutes.
Enjoy!
