Green quinoa with sesame eggs
I love creating recipes. To find inspiration, I borrow tone of books at the library. Here a recipe inspired by the Australian women’s weekly delicious gluten-free food, from Dr Joana McMillan.For once, I haven’t make many modifications.
This recipe is gluten free and can be done without garlic if you’re under a low fodmap diet.
Serves : 4
-
- 1cup (200g) quinoa, soaked and rinsed
- 2 cups (500ml) bone broth (or water)
- 8 eggs at room temperature

- ½ cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
