Here is how you make Quinoa Pie:

Rinse and then gently toast the quinoa for about 3 minutes in a small dry saucepan, over medium heat. Stir to avoid sticking. Add one cup of water and stir. Cover, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer until the water is evaporated, 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat.Meanwhile, place the frozen vegetables in a large saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 7 minutes. Remove from heat and drain thoroughly. Heat the .75 Tbsp olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat and brown the onions (about 7 minutes). In a large bowl, incorporate the cooked quinoa, spinach, broccoli, and onions. Crumble in the goat cheese and pour in the tzaziki and the egg beaters. Stir well to blend. Add salt and pepper if desired.With nonstick cooking spray, grease a 9 inch pie-pan. Press the mixture into the prepared pie pan and put into a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 minutes. Drizzle with .5 Tbsp olive oil and return to the oven for 20 more minutes.
