2. Bring 1 cup of water to boil at medium-high heat.
3. Add in 1/2 cup of quinoa and bring water to a boil, cover pot and reduce heat to medium-low.
4. Let quinoa cook covered until water is completely absorbed and quinoa is soft (approx. 15-18 mins)
Coconut Curry Sauce
1. In a medium sized pot over medium heat, saute the onions, garlic with 1 teaspoon of coconut oil.
