Quinoa With Chard, Sausage, And Corn

1. 1

   Bring vegetable broth to a boil in a medium pot. Add quinoa and turn heat down to low. Cover and cook for approx. 20 minutes until quinoa has absorbed all the liquid and is nice and fluffy.

2. 2

   Meanwhile, separate the chard leaves from the stalks. Dice stalks and slice up leaves into bite-size pieces.

3. 3

   Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. (If chicken sausages are not pre-cooked, add to pan at this point and saute until cooked. If they are pre-cooked, then begin with chard stalks.)

4. 4

   Add chard stalks and saute for a few minutes.

5. 5

   Add garlic, mushrooms, and sausage (if pre-cooked) and saute, stirring frequently, for a few more minutes until garlic is fragrant and the sausage is beginning to brown.

6. 6

   Add chard leaves and corn and cook until chard is beginning to wilt.

7. 7

   Turn off heat and add quinoa to pan, mixing everything together.

8. 8

   Enjoy either as is or with a healthy sprinkle of cheese!
