Protein-Packed Alkaline Quinoa Bowl Recipe by Dr. Daryl

November 03, 2020 Dr Daryl Gioffre

Today’s recipe is a quick and easy alkaline dinner that delivers vegan protein, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals. What more could you ask for?

Oh yeah, taste! It’s delicious too. The whole family will ask for seconds.

It’s a great way to get vegan protein from both the quinoa and the adzuki beans.

Plus, it’s flexible. Feel free to add other ingredients you love – diced red pepper maybe? – or take a way anything you’re not into, like the jalapeno.

Give it a try and let me know what you think over on Facebook.

PROTEIN-PACKED ALKALINE QUINOA BOWL

Ingredients [Serves 4]

1 1/2 cups quinoa
3 cups vegetable broth (yeast-free)
1 cup diced tomatoes
1 1/2 cups canned adzuki beans (I prefer Eden Organics)
1 avocado, diced
Sea salt to taste (Celtic Grey, Himalayan, or Redmond Real Salt)
Black pepper to taste
Optional: 1/2 to 1 jalapeno, diced
Optional: squeeze of fresh lime juice

Directions

If you have a rice cooker, put all ingredients (except avocado and lime) into a rice cooker. Set to cook until all liquid is absorbed (time varies depending on your rice cooker).

If not, combine quinoa and broth over medium high heat and bring to a boil. Turn down heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes or so until all liquid is absorbed. Add tomato, adzuki beans, salt, pepper, and jalapeno.

Top with avocado and a squeeze of lime. Serve and enjoy!

Kelly Ripa, who wrote the Foreword, had this to say:

“What I like most about Dr. Daryl’s method is that it’s not a ‘diet’ but more of a lifestyle change. There’s no counting calories or limiting portion sizes, only a new awareness of ‘alkaline eating.’ Once you learn the difference between alkaline and acidic ingredients, you will know what to eat and will be able to benefit from keeping this balance in your bodies.
