Quinoa With Creamy Garlic Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup quinoa (dry measure)
    1 zucchini
    2 garlic cloves
    1/2 onion
    1 tablespoon nutritional yeast (optional)
    1/2 cup coconut milk
    1 pinch sea salt
    1 pinch ground pepper
    1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
Preparation
    Start by cooking the quinoa. Rinse it with water and drain, then add 2 cups water and a sprinkle of sea salt to the water. Bring this to a boil, then turn down to simmer for 20-30 minutes. When you see the swirl of the grains, with a translucent center, the quinoa is fully cooked. It should be fluffy if you don't stir the quinoa while it cooks.
    Make the sauce while the quinoa is cooking by putting the rest of the ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend the zucchini with enough coconut milk and/or water to get it smooth. Add the garlic and onion in stages to make sure the sauce stays smooth.
    Serve the cooked quinoa topped with the sauce alone, or add some chopped vegetables, steamed or raw.
