Directions

Prepare the quinoa, based on the package’s instructions - but usually a 2:1 ratio of liquid to quinoa. While quinoa is cooking begin steps 2-5. Once it is done, fluff the quinoa and set it aside. (For a little extra depth of flavor, consider preparing quinoa with your favorite broth in place of water)
In a large saute pan or skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the onion and peppers. Saute for about 3 minutes, or until the onions begin to soften
Add in the radishes and celery and saute for another 2-3 minutes
Stir in the garlic, ginger and liquid aminos
Pour the quinoa into the pan and continue heating over medium-high heat for a few more minutes for all the flavors to blend. Sprinkle the chopped scallions on top and serve with sliced radishes, if desired
