Actifry Quinoa

Have I mentioned how much I love my TFal Actifry?  This thing is a godsend! (I bet this would be a great alternative to fried rice if I added some soy sauce... I will try it and update)

Ingredients:
1 package of baby portobella mushrooms, cleaned, cut, and sliced
1 TFal spoon of olive oil
1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
1 tsp pepper, or to taste
8oz of cooked Quinoa
14oz Red Kidney beans, rinsed and drained
2 beaten eggs (optional)- I did not do this
1 cup of frozen peas and carrots
1/4 cup of chopped onions


Directions:
Cook the Quinoa according to package directions; this will take about 15 minutes. (Optionally, use chicken stock rather than water when cooking the Quinoa). Add the oil, mushrooms, onions, salt and pepper to the Actifry and run for 5 minutes.  Load the Quinoa to the Actifry, run for 10 minutes. Add the kidney beans, peas and carrots to the Actifry, run for 3 minutes. Optionally, add the beaten eggs, run for 3 minutes.


*Do not leave the kidney beans in for too long because they will open up and look a bit exploded... not that I did this... just guessing ;)
