My fiancé and I have made this +a few times, and it's a great alternative to giving up on life and ordering +delivery. + +## Recipe + +Makes 4-6 servings, at least based on experience + +### Ingredients + +- 2 cups quinoa, dry +- 0.75 kg ground beef (pre-cooked or sautéed) +- 400 ml medium salsa +- 2.5 cups water +- 2 tablespoons garlic powder +- 2 tablespoons salt (to taste) +- 1 teaspoon oregano +- 3 tablespoons ground dried onions +- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper + +If you want it to be more spicy, add more spice. We've found this tastes pretty +good when you add more spice, but this depends on your mood more than anything. + +### Preparation + +If you haven't cooked the ground beef yet, sautée/brown it in the instant pot. +See things like [this](https://amindfullmom.com/instant-pot-ground-beef/) for +more information on how to do this. Any method will do, just make sure the ground +beef is actually cooked to avoid accidentally poisoning yourself. + +Put all of the other ingredients in the instant pot. Order doesn't matter, but I +have found that better results happen when the quinoa is put in first. + +Mix everything with your favorite mixing tool. + +Put the lid on your instant pot and set it to manual for 2 minutes. + +Once that is done, leave it alone for about 15 minutes (this doesn't have to be +exact). + +Serve warm in a bowl, can go well with tortilla chips depending on your mood. + +### Reheating + +For about a bowlful, nuke until hot (~1 minute 30 seconds seems to be the magic +number). Eat while hot.
