1. Start by snapping the ends off the green beans and snapping them in half. If you're using frozen green beans, you can obviously skip this step, but thaw them.2. Mix the soaked quinoa, the rice, and the water into a pot with a little salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cover, simmering for 15 minutes.3. Blanche the green beans by dropping them into briskly boiling water and cooking for 7-8 minutes. Afterwards, drain well and saute in the olive oil with some salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder for 3-5 minutes or until bright green and crisp-tender.4. Mix the cranberry sauce and the orange juice into a pot over high heat, stirring constantly to dissolve cranberry sauce. Boil, continuing to stir constantly, for 10 minutes, or until reduced to a light syrup consistency. Add salt, pepper, onion and garlic powder, turmeric, oregano, and ginger as per your personal taste.To serve, layer rice/quinoa mixture, green beans, and sauce. Top with sesame seeds, and I enjoyed adding a little chili powder to it.Number of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user HELLPARADISO.
