How to make Instant Pot Quinoa Bowl
This is a super Dump and GO sort of a instant pot recipe.
Step 1: Prep
Wash your veggies and dice them small.Wash the quinoa too.I learnt this the tough way.Trust me.My dish was all muddy and had that horrible muddy crunch to it because there was residue in the quinoa.So wash it! Always!
Step 2: Pressure Cook
Literally just throw all the ingredients in.Mix it up and pressure cook for 2 minutes on HIGH pressure.
Step 3: Pressure Release
Wait for 5 minutes after the 2 minutes of pressure cooking is done.Quick Release and open.
If you want to add cheese, add it now and close the instant pot for another 5 minutes in the KEEP WARM setting.
If not, fluff up the quinoa with a fork and serve!
