Instructions
Cook quinoa according to instructions on the box. (I used a rice cooker with 2 cups dry quinoa to 4 cups water). Takes approximately 15 minutes.
In a large deep saute pan over medium heat, melt coconut oil and saute mixed greens for approximately 5 minutes. Greens should be wilty, but not browned.
Add in all remaining ingredients except pistachios, but including cooked quinoa.
Cook over medium heat for approximately 15 minutes to thoroughly heat/thicken, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
