Buffalo Chicken Quinoa Casserole


The recipe calls for: 1 thick chicken breast 1 cup quinoa 2 cups water 1 cup broccoli florets 1 cup carrots, shredded 1 cup cabbage, shredded 1/2 cup buffalo hot sauce 1/2 cup olive oil salt 1/2 cup blue cheese crumbles, plus some for garnish 4 green onions, chopped -- Cook the chicken however you like. You can cut it up into cubes and cook it in a pan or you can do what I did. I boiled the chicken for 30 mins and then shredded it. -- Bring the water and quinoa to a boil then put it on low, cover the pot and cook for 20 minutes. -- Whisk together the hot sauce, olive oil and some salt to make a sauce. -- Cook the broccoli in pan with some olive oil for about 5 minutes. You want the broccoli to soften a little, but still have some crunch to it. Add the shredded chicken to the pan with 1/2 of the sauce. Let the chicken soak up the sauce. -- In a large bowl, thoroughly mix the quinoa with the chicken, broccoli and sauce mixture. Add the carrots, cabbage, most of the onion, blue cheese and the rest of the sauce together. -- Sprinkle the top of the dish with some onion and blue cheese crumbled. Seriously, UH-MAZING!!!

Positive vibes,
