Cauliflower-Quinoa Frittata

Ingredients

1/2 cup chopped cauliflower

1/3 cup diced celery

1/4 cup diced onion

1 tablespoon olive oil

3/4 cup cooked quinoa

2 eggs, beaten

Pinch of sea salt

Directions

Sauté the cauliflower, celery, and onion in olive oil over medium heat until tender and golden, about 10 minutes.
Stir in the quinoa, and heat through.
Whisk 1 tablespoon water into the beaten eggs, and pour the mixture over the veggie and quinoa.
Continue to cook on the burner until the egg is firm, about 4 minutes. Then transfer to the broiler, and cook until the top is puffy and golden, about 1-2 more minutes.
