Instant Pot Quinoa

 

QUINOA IN THE INSTANT POT

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup quinoa
• 1 1/2 cups water or chicken bone broth (broth is way better)
• Avocado oil
• 1 pinch salt

INSTRUCTIONS

• Rinse quinoa under cold running water until the water runs clear.
• Wipe the Instant Pot liner with oil and add the rinsed quinoa (still damp), water/broth and salt.
• Lock the lid and set the steam valve to its “sealing” position. 
• Select the “MANUAL” button and cook for 1 minute on high pressure. It will take about 5 minutes for the pressure to build, then the countdown timer will start. 
• Allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes and then release any remaining pressure.
• Fluff quinoa with a fork and serve.

NOTES

Leftover quinoa keeps well, refrigerated, for 4 to 5 days. Make sure it has cooled to room temperature before covering and chilling. You can also portion the quinoa into freezer bags and freeze the quinoa until you’re ready for it.
