Great addition to any meal or on its own as a meal. My boyfriend has me make this at least once a month. It warms up great in microwave I put ketchup on top of mine ...

How to Make Quinoa Cheeseburger Pie
- When cooking Quinoa add a little extra water and let it sit for an extra 10 minutes to soak up extra water. When Quinoa is warm to touch mix in Parmesan cheese and beaten egg Mix really good so that some of the Quinoa gets mashed. Press into a large greased pie plate site to the side
- While your Quinoa is cooling brown onion, garlic. Add Kale,carrots and red pepper cook for about 5 minutes then add hamburger cook until all hamburger is cooked thoroughly. We all like to cook with different temperature time will vary
- remove from heat let cool for about 5 minutes I keep my grated cheese in the freezer so it mixes up really nice . Mix in all cheese and spice you would like stir in beaten eggs really quickly then put filling into Quinoa Pie Crust place in oven on the lowest rack of a 350 degree preheated oven (this is so the Quinoa will have a crunchier crust). pull out of oven let cool for about 20 minutes serve with ketchup / mustard
- You can add what ever vegetable that you like, make sure they are in small size , as well you can use what ever kind of meat you would like I have made Turkey before as well
