Because I am constantly busy, I don&#8217;t always have the time to make something healthy every day and, since having to cut out as much gluten from my diet, thinking about what to eat has been causing more harm than good. Since being forced to be creative with my food choices, I have found myself\u00a0 making various kinds of health bowls and stir fry&#8217;s during the week which I can conveniently grab and get on with my day. The two I have been making the most however is a crunchy gluten-free goodness bowl &amp; chicken quinoa stir-fry simply because they each take less than 30 minutes to throw together and you only have to wash one pot!<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->While both start off with the same spice base, they yield very different flavors and textures. The quinoa stir-fry can be eaten both warm and cold while the crunchy bowl is best served warm. I bought most of my ingredients at Organic Touch in Belvedere Square which you can r<a href=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/index.php\/2017\/08\/21\/healthy-living-made-easy-with-organic-touch\/\">ead more about here<\/a> as I find their prices to be better than most other places. Plus, supporting local businesses is always good!<\/p>\n<p>The base for each dish is essentially everything pictured in the image below but you can change up the quantity or spice or add something else to it!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170804_115146-edit.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"8322\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/sdr-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170804_115146-edit.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"5119,3226\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.2&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;VTR-L09&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;sdr&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1501847507&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;3.95&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;250&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.03&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;sdr&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"sdr\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;sdr&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170804_115146-edit-1024x645.jpg\" class=\"size-large wp-image-8322\" src=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170804_115146-edit-1024x645.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"665\" height=\"419\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170804_115146-edit-1024x645.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170804_115146-edit-300x189.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170804_115146-edit-768x484.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 665px) 100vw, 665px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h4>Simply:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Braise one finely chopped onion with 1 Tbsp coconut oil.<\/li>\n<li>For the crunchy bowl, I added spring onion as well and found that it gave the dish a lighter flavor.<\/li>\n<li>Add 1 Tbsp finely chopped garlic, some salt and a sprinkle of black pepper<\/li>\n<li>At this point, you can also add either cayenne pepper or 1\/2 tsp green chilli chutney (chillies blended with coriander)<\/li>\n<li>When the onions are browned, proceed to make either of the dishes below.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Chicken quinoa stir-fry\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170819_170221-Edit.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"8345\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/index.php\/2017\/09\/30\/gluten-freebowl\/img_20170819_170221-edit\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170819_170221-Edit.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3000,2250\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_20170819_170221 Edit\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170819_170221-Edit-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"size-large wp-image-8345 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170819_170221-Edit-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"665\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170819_170221-Edit-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170819_170221-Edit-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_20170819_170221-Edit-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 665px) 100vw, 665px\" \/><\/a>Makes enough for 3 people or 3 &#8216;grab-and-go&#8217; bowls<\/p>\n<h4>Ingredients<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>2 Carrots sliced or cubed<\/li>\n<li>A handful of spinach<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 Cup sliced mushrooms<\/li>\n<li>3 Chicken breasts sliced into strips<\/li>\n<li>3\/4 Cup quinoa<\/li>\n<li>3 tbsp low sodium soy-sauce<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 cup water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Method<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Boil the quinoa as per package instructions until almost cooked.<\/li>\n<li>While the quinoa is cooking, add the carrots, mushrooms and chicken breasts to the braised onions and add another tbsp coconut oil<\/li>\n<li>When the chicken is nearly done, add the soy-sauce and water, by this time, your quinoa should almost be thoroughly cooked through so take it off the heat and add it to the chicken and vegetable mixture.<\/li>\n<li>Allow everything to cook through add add more soy-sauce if you wish.
