Sautéed Collard Greens with Quinoa and Roasted Chicken





Just getting into #CleanEating😀 Hubby not so happy,  but he'll get over it. This was really simple and really yummy. Took a bag of pre chopped and cleaned collard greens, 1/2 bunch of asparagus cut into pieces, 3 large carrots sliced/shaved with a peeler, red pepper chopped, 4 garlic cloves and juice of 1 lemon, S&P to taste. I sautéed all in a large skillet with 2 tbs of olive oil until the veggies were cooked and the greens wilted, about 10 minutes. I cooked the quinoa per directions and added 2 cloves of chopped garlic when it was finished cooking. I had roasted several large bone in chicken breast on the grill. I removed the skin and bone and chopped the chicken and reserved 8 oz for this dish and saved the rest for later. Served the chicken over the quinoa and greens and shaved some parmigiana reggiano cheese overtop. NOM NOM!!! Followed this with organic, free trade dark chocolate for dessert!!
