1 cup quinoa
2 cups water
1 1/2 pounds snow peas trimmed
1 to 2 tablespoon tamari sauce to taste
2 tablespoons mirin or white wine
3 to 4 scallion chopped
6 thick wedges avocados

1. Rinse the quinoa and place in a medium pot along with the water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer 15 to 20 minutes or until the water is absorbed and the grains are tender.
2. When the quinoa is almost done, heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the snow peas and stir 2 to 3 minutes or until slightly tender. Add the tamari and mirin, stir quickly, and remove from the heat. Add the scallions, cover, and let sit about a minute.
3. Divide the cooked quinoa onto individual plates. Top with the snow-pea mixture and any liquid that is left in the skillet. Garnish each serving with 2 avocado wedges and enjoy immediately.
