1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup frozen artichoke hearts, thawed and slightly chopped
8 sun-dried tomatoes (not packed in oil) chopped
1 green onion, thinly slice

2. Bring water to a boil.
3. Stir in quinoa, cover and simmer 15 minutes.
4. Heat olive oil in a skillet, sauté carrots, artichoke hearts and garlic (do not overcook garlic-it will become bitter)
