Asian Broccoli Quinoa

I adapted this recipe from greensmoothiegirl. It is amazingly delicious and leftovers are great! I love all the Asian flavors with the quinoa! 

Asian Broccoli Quinoa
1 T coconut oil
1 yellow onion, chopped in food processor
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped in food processor
2 cups water
1 T pure maple syrup
1 T rice vinegar
juice and zest of 1 lemon
juice and zest of 1 orange
1/2 t Himalayan salt
1/4 t fresh cracked pepper
1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes, chopped
4 cups broccoli, chopped
1 cup quinoa, rinsed
1 cup raw cashews
Heat oil in saucepan. Add onions and garlic and saute until translucent. Add peppers and saute a couple minutes. Add remaining ingredients except cashews and simmer covered approximately 20 minutes or until broccoli is tender. Toss cashews in right before serving! Enjoy!
