Quinoa with brussel sprouts and apples

Quinoa is the grain with the highest amount of protein and it is easy to make! 
This brand happens to be prewashed, which saves a step.

Cook the quinoa
Add 1 cup quinoa and 2 cups water to a sauce pan.
Heat to boiling, then simmer for about 15 minutes, until the liquid is gone.

In the meantime,
Cut up your brussel sprouts (about one pound) into quarters
Cut 2 gala apples into bite size pieces.

Heat up a skillet to high, then add:
1/2 cup water and the apple chunks

In about 2 minutes, when half the water is gone, add:
Brussel sprouts
Another 1/2 cup water
2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper

Cook with the lid on, stirring occasionally, until the sprouts can be easily pierced with a fork (about 15 minutes).

Add the leaves of two sprigs of thyme and 2 more Tablespoons of apple cider vinegar.
Cook with the lid off until most of the liquid is gone, about 2 minutes.

Put a bed of quinoa on a plate, then add a couple of scoops of brussel sprouts and apple.

My husband loved this dish!

My two year old really liked the quinoa!
