Gingered Quinoa

Begin by warming up coconut oil in a medium saucepan on medium heat. Dice the onion and place it in the saucpan along with the garlic, ginger, and salt. Stir and saute on medium low for 5–8 minutes or until the onion becomes tender and translucent. Pour the water in the pan and bring to a boil. Add the rinsed quinoa, lower heat to medium low (medium simmer), cover and cook for 20–25 minutes or until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is cooked.

Salt and pepper as desired. You can reduce the ginger to 1 teaspoon if you would like a more subtle ginger essence.
