Ingredients
 
 

  • 3 medium chicken breasts skinless and boneless
  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups kale chopped
  • 1 cup pumpkin cut into chunks
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • ½ cup blueberries

Instructions
 

Cook the chicken

  • Place the chicken breasts in a saucepan of water, bring to the boil and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until they are cooked through.
  • Drain the water, and using two forks, shed the chicken into pieces.

Cook the quinoa

  • Place the cup of quinoa in a saucepan with the 2 cups water. Cover and bring to the boil. Simmer for 15 minutes until the water has been absorbed.

Cook the kale

  • Heat the coconut oil in a large pan or skillet and add the kale. Saute for 5 minutes until cooked. Stir in the nutritional yeast.

Cook the pumpkin

  • It can be steamed but for this recipe we boiled the chunks. Place the pumpkin pieces in a medium saucepan. Cover, bring to the boil and simmer for 10-12 minutes until soft.

Assemble

  • Place the cooked quinoa, pumpkin, kale and chicken in a large bowl or container. Add the blueberries and stir well to combine all of the ingredients.
