Mixed Vegetable Quinoa Pasta
Well, what can I say about this dish! Like mama, like baby...Yeah, my daughter likes to experiment different food and as I introduced sphagetti and pasta she makes my life easy! Atleast shes saving me few minutes.So, since this is more on the toddler side food, I made sure not to add lot of artificial sauces and made it as natural as I can and at the end, she did pick up that pasta and ate it with a smile on her face
Ingredients:
Quinoa Pasta (I bought this from sprouts,organic)
Veggies of your choice, the ones I used
Carrots
All colour bell peppers
Spring onions
Cauliflower
Brocoli
Beans
Garlic
Pasta Sauce
Oil
Pepper
Jeera (cumin) powder
Method:
1. In a pan add about 5 cups of water for 2.5 cups of pasta, we usually dont measure but I am giving an approximation.
2. Let the water boil and then add your pasta and cook it till all done! really well done, keeping a toddler in mind
3. Now, in another wide pan, heat some oil and then fry the chopped spring onion.
4. Saute the Spring onion, garlic and add bell peppers and other vegetables one by one.
5. Give all the veggies a real well stirring and add some jeera powder.
6. If your pasta is well done in the meantime, separate it from the remaining water and let it cool.
7. Once all your veggies are fried, add the paste sauce and keep stirring.
8. Lastly, add the pasta to this veggie mix and serve hot.
Many must be wondering, there are no sauces or any flavouring, well as I mentioned before since this is in reference to a toddler, I kept it mild and they love the natural tastes (atleast mine did). She picked a few veggies and enjoying red bell pepper the most!
