Colorful Quinoa Kichdi

If food were meant to be alluring, tempting and seductive, then this dish nailed those desires. As simple as it was to prepare, I am classifying this as an anytime treat - This was one of the first dishes I made with my home grown veggies, and I realize I have over 20 recipes that I need to catch up on, what with the pickling, saucing and chutney-ing of all the tomatoes growing in the garden. This dish has exactly what you see in it - veggies, quinoa, and chives blossoms for decoration. A healthy one pot meal

For this you need veggies of your choice - I used tomatoes, broccoli, bell peppers (orange and yellow), green peas, cilantro and chives blossoms and fresh sage leaves for garnish - green chilies for heating up.

Steam cook the quinoa; sautee the veggies; mix them together in a pan with the heat on - allow them to blend for 2-3 minutes and then serve hot.

This is made separately for my daughter with sauteed broccoli on the side :)
