Ingredients

For 4 servings

  • 4 can canned salmon
  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 3 cup broccoli florets
  • 2 cup cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 onion
  • 3 clove garlic
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 2

    Rinse quinoa under cold water. In a pot, combine quinoa and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for about 15 minutes until water is absorbed and quinoa is cooked.

  3. 3

    While quinoa is cooking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Chop onion and mince garlic, then sauté them in the skillet until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add broccoli florets to the skillet and sauté for an additional 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Drain canned salmon and flake it into small pieces.

  6. 6

    In a large bowl, combine cooked quinoa, sautéed vegetables, flaked salmon, milk, and 1 cup of cheddar cheese. Mix well.

  7. 7

    Transfer the mixture into a baking dish. Top with remaining cheese.

  8. 8

    Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes, until cheese is melted and golden brown.

  9. 9

    Remove from oven, let cool for a few minutes, then serve.
