    Salsa Chicken Quinoa


    Salsa Chicken Quinoa is a simple, tasty, and extremely healthy, high protein meal. This recipe will not disappoint.

    What You Need

    2 cup quinoa, uncooked
    24 ounces cooked chicken
    2 cups salsa
    1 cup chopped raw onion
    Diced jalapeno to taste (optional)


    Cooking Instructions

    Boil quinoa in with 4 cups water. After reaching a raging boil, turn the heat down to medium-low. Allow quinoa to cook until only a slight amount of water is left. Pull quinoa from heat, and let stand covered for 10 minutes. Extra water will soak into the quinoa.
    Mix chicken, salsa and onion in with the quinoa. Divide evenly into 5 Tupperware containers.

        Making this right now and figured id post up a pic while its cooking.I'll post up another pic when its all done.This is after the quinoa is done and I have the chicken marinating in the salsa a little while to absorb the flavor a little.Im going to have this with some tuna & pasta as well for a little extra protein and carbs.
