I feel like I pretty much only post breakfast and dessert recipes, but I swear I eat other things too! Usually their just not as pretty haha.
Well I figured there are probably a lot of you that could use a nice, healthy, high protein recipe for dinner that's full of veggies and all sorts of other good stuff! 
This recipe only serves one (although it makes a lot of food, I'm just a piggy), but it can easily be multiplied to feed more people! I'm just a starving college kid so I typically only make enough food for myself. Unless it's date night of course :P
I'm not exactly sure what to call this dish, so I'm just gonna wing it and name it:
Cheesey Veggie Quinoa with Chicken (serves one piggy)
- 1/4 cup (43 g ) dry quinoa
- 1/2 cup water
- 4 oz (112 g) chicken breast
- 1 cup (113 g) zuchinni
- 1 cup (85 g) broccoli
- 1 small mushroom
- 1 cup (100 g) tomatoes
- 1 laughing cow light wedge
- Rinse quinoa and drain in colander. Add to small pot with water and bring to a boil. Once boiling reduce to simmer, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes.
- Spray a medium skillet with non-stick spray. Once hot, add chicken and season with garlic salt and pepper. Cover. Once golden on one side, flip and let cook until no longer pink in the middle. Remove chicken from pan and let rest while veggies cook.
- Add veggies to hot skillet with a little bit of water. Cover and let steam. Season with garlic salt and pepper.
- Once tomatoes have burst, slice chicken and add to veggie mixture. Lightly stir in laughing cow wedge.
- When quinoa is finished cooking, add to veggie mixture.
- Serve and enjoy!
