Red Quinoa Bowl with Swiss Chard and Poached Egg
Technically a seed (so no gluten), quinoa is touted as a superfood for its high fiber and protein. The runny yolk of a poached egg creates a little sauce on top.

This was so good! Best vegetarian meal I've ever made, seriously. I was so shocked that the flavor was so good with so little seasoning. I reduced the olive oil by half and only used a third cup quinoa to cut calories some, didn't need the extra. It was perfect. Like SBurroughs said... the layers of flavor! I'm so impressed that so much flavor could be built with just veggies and an oozy yolk. Will certainly make again. Very filling, too, which isn't always the case with veg meals.

I used a bag of frozen swiss chard, and it came together pretty quickly. I also reduced the total amount of oil used to about 1.5 Tbsp., which seemed adequate.
Read MoreI needed a side dish for a mushroom ravioli dinner (no sauce), so didn't add the quinoa or the poached eggs. I also used red swiss chard which makes it very colorful. It all blended wonderfully. Will try again as listed in the recipe.
