I use quinoa instead of rice in fried rice recipes to save on carbs and up the protein content.
I need to watch my carbohydrate intake so rice is not a go-to for me. I use quinoa instead. Once sprouted, my body recognizes the ancient grain as a vegetable.
I like mung bean sprouts and alfalfa sprouts in my quinoa. I also put yellow onion, egg, green onion edamame peas, napa cabbage, and some type of seafood. I use prepackaged fried rice seasoning and oyster sauce to make the flavor just right. Finishing off with sweet and sour sauce and low sodium soy sauce—mmm mmm good. Tastes even better the next day. I finish off the meal with a SodaStream sugar-free soda.
