That’s about all you need to remember for this dish I created tonight. It was delicious, nutritious, gluten-free, no added sugar, and has chocolate.
- 3 cups organic quinoa
- vegetable oil or olive oil
- 6-1/2 cups water
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 2 Hass avocados
- 4 Ataulfo mangoes
In a large sauce pan, toast the quinoa in a thin layer of oil to bring out the flavor. Stir frequently to avoid burning. Add the water, cocoa & cinnamon, and bring to a boil. Pit & peel the avocados and dice into the pan. If they are ripe enough, wisk them into the slurry. Peel & dice the mangoes & add them. Boil for about 6 minutes, then cover. Remove from heat and let sit for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Transfer it to a suitable bowl or casserole dish for serving and cover and put it into the refrigerator to chill.
It is mildly sweet and goes well with salad and/or soup.
