Serves: 4
INGREDIENTS:
  • 3 cups cooked quinoa
  • 4 baby bok choy bunches, sliced (separate the more fibrous white bottoms and more delicate green leafy tops)
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 cups crimini mushrooms (chopped)
  • ¼ cup tamari, divided
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 green onion stalk, sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • Optional toppings: fresh cilantro and sliced avocado
DIRECTIONS:
  1. Heat the oil in a large skillet then add in the mushrooms and garlic and sautée for 2-3 minutes. Add a splash of water to the pan as needed if it gets dry and the garlic starts to brown too quickly.
  2. Add in the eggs as well as the white parts of the book choy eggs and continue to sautée quickly for a minute, breaking up the egg yolks and blending the eggs together.
  3. Add in the quinoa and cook for 4 minutes, just stirring occasionally now so the quinoa starts to brown.
  4. Add in 2 tablespoons of the tamari, the green ends of the book choy and the green onion and continue to sauté for 4 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat and add in the final two teaspoons of tamari. Portion out and add cilantro and avocado and serve hot.
