There are four basic steps to this complete Simple Start meal. We’ve listed each preparation step below – and then while the quinoa and tilapia both finish cooking – we’ve listed final steps to complete the meal so that it is ready to be served all together. (Alternately you can cook the vegetable topping and green beans ahead of time and then reheat in the microwave before serving.) Please also note – we’ve written this recipe to serve a family of 4. You should adjust the recipe based on the number of portions you are looking to serve.

When cooking with quinoa, it’s important to rinse it before cooking to remove a naturally-occurring, slightly bitter taste. Or some brands, like Bob’s Red Mill organic whole grain Quinoa, which we used here, have been pre-rinsed and dried before packaging which removes that bitter taste.
