Ingredients

  • 1 cup uncooked quinoa
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 red onion
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 package (12.95oz) Field Roast Smoked Apple Sage Vegan Sausages (can swap with another vegan sausage but the flavor will be different)
  • 2 cups fresh baby spinach
  • 1 can (15oz) Fire Roasted Tomatoes
  • ½ teaspoon Italian Seasoning
  • 1 pinch Red Pepper Flakes, Optional

Instructions

  • Add uncooked quinoa to a saucepan and stir for 2 minutes to toast. 
  • Add vegetable broth and bring to boil.
  • Reduce heat, cover and cook for 15 minutes or until the broth has all been soaked up by the quinoa.  Remove from heat and let sit covered for 5 minutes. 
  • While that is cooking, chop onions and mince garlic. And slice your sausage into ½ inch pieces.
  • Add olive oil to a skillet (we like cast iron for this) over medium heat. 
  • Once hot, add in onions and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.  Stirring to make sure it doesn't burn. 
  • Add in garlic and cook for 1 minute. 
  • Add in sliced sausage and Italian seasoning and stir around. Cook for 2 minutes without moving to brown one side of the sausage. Then stir together. 
  • Cook another 2 minutes to brown the other side of the sausage slices and then stir together.
  • Add in your tomatoes (including juice) and stir again. 
  • Let cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. 
  • Add in spinach and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until spinach has completely wilted. 
  • Add in optional red pepper flakes if desired.
  • Remove from heat and serve over quinoa.
