Story

Isn't it great making dinner in just one skillet? If you can't buy fresh snow peas, use frozen. Just let them thaw and dry completely before throwing them in the hot skillet.
I like using quinoa as a side dish in this meal. After sauteing the snow peas, throw cooked quinoa in the skillet and stir just long enough to heat through. It will only take about 30 seconds. Enjoy!
