Introduction

This is a great pot luck dish! It bursts with flavor. This is a great recipe for left over Pork Roast. Feel free to substitute chicken or turkey. Pork roasts are more flavorful though.

Ingredients

    1.5 cups (dry) Quinoa
    1 Cup of raw onion
    1/3 Cup of dried, unsweetened cranberries
    1.5 Lbs Shredded Pork Roast (picnic)
    3 oz of Plain Greek Yogurt
    1 tsp of Mrs Dash Onion and Herb

Tips

Prep time and cook time are assuming you already have the pork roast cooked. I prepared a roast the night before and divided it into various meals. Pork roast is flavorful but if eaten in large quantities at the same time, it can be higher in fat. I treat pork roast like Extra Sharp Cheddar cheese! Because of the intensely delicious flavor, you only need a little!


Directions

You must have at least 1.5 lbs of a pork roast. If you don't, you will have to pre bake this before you can start this recipe.
1. Follow package instructions for quinoa. You need at least 1.5 cups of dry quinoa. Allow quinoa to cool PRIOR to adding it with other ingredients.
2. Dice 1 cup of onion.
3. Combine all ingredients.
4. This dish is ready to eat! It tastes the best of you let it refrigerate for at least an hour or more.
