Broccoli Casserole

This was very easy to make & the whole family enjoyed it! 

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cup uncooked quinoa
4 1/2 cup low-sodium vegetable stock, or water
2 tbsp pesto sauce
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp cornstarch
2 cups fresh organic spinach
12 oz skim mozzarella cheese
1/3 cup parmesan cheese
12 oz fresh broccoli florets
3 green onions, chopped

Directions:

1) Preheat the oven to 400F.
2) In a 9x13 baking rectangular dish place the quinoa and green onions. 
3) In a large mixing bowl, with a wire whisk, mix the vegetable stock, pesto, corn starch and salt. Heat mixture until boil. 
4) Add the vegetable stock to the quinoa followed by the spinach, parmesan and 3/4 of the mozzarella cheese. Bake for 30-35 minutes.
5) While baking, place the broccoli in a large bowl and microwave on high for 3 minutes. 
6) Take the casserole out of the oven and mix in the broccoli. Sprinkle the rest of the cheese over the quinoa and broccoli and place back in the oven for 5 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
