It's been awhile since I got creative with dinner and felt so satisfied after. This hearty dinner is a perfect perk to the week!

Vegetable, Quinoa, & Shrimp Sesame Ginger Stir-Fry

Servings: 1

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of quinoa (cooked)

1 cup of assorted stir-fry vegetables (I used an organic frozen stir-fry medley - be sure to thaw first!) 

Big handful of spinach! (the more greens the better!)

5-6 raw shrimp

Sauce:

1/2-1 Tbsp of coconut aminos (this is a more nutritious alternative to soy sauce, you could use soy sauce or tamari)

1 Tbsp of coconut oil

1 Tbsp of sesame oil

1/2 tsp of ground ginger

Dash of rosemary

Red pepper flakes to taste (depending on your level of spiciness)

Black pepper to taste

Directions:

In a small bowl combine the sauce ingredients then pour into a medium frying pan over med-high heat. Then add stiry-fry vegetables (no spinach or quinoa yet!) and shrimp and saute for 3-5 min (until shrimp is cooked and vegetables are tender.) Then toss in the quinoa and spinach and let cook for 1-2 more minutes until the spinach wilts. 

annndddd...enjoy! This is a simple, quick, easy recipe (the way they all should be!) that is filled with protein, vitamins, and minerals....let your food be the fuel for your body.
