Ingredient:
2 cups Progresso reduced sodium chicken broth (from 32-oz carton)
1 cup uncooked white quinoa, rinsed, drained
2 tbsp Old El Paso original taco seasoning mix (from 1-oz package)
2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend (8 oz)
1 lb bulk chorizo sausage
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
1 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup milk
1 can (4.5 oz) Old El Paso chopped green chiles
8 eggs, slightly beaten
1/4 cup crumbled queso fresco cheese
2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
Sour cream, as desired
Lime wedges, as desired
Method:
Heat oven to 400°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish with cooking spray. In 2-quart saucepan, mix broth, quinoa and 1 tablespoon of the taco seasoning mix; heat to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook 14 to 16 minutes or until broth is absorbed and quinoa is soft and translucent. Remove from heat; stir in 1 cup of the Mexican cheese blend. Spread evenly in baking dish.
Meanwhile, in 12-inch nonstick skillet, cook sausage, bell pepper and onions 8 to 10 minutes over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until vegetables soften and begin to brown and sausage is no longer pink; drain. Return to skillet; stir in milk, green chiles and remaining 1 tablespoon taco seasoning mix. Heat to boiling over medium-high heat. Reduce heat; simmer 2 to 3 minutes or until thickened. Pour mixture over quinoa mixture in baking dish.
In large bowl, beat eggs with whisk. Stir in remaining 1 cup Mexican cheese blend. Pour evenly over sausage mixture in baking dish.
Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Sprinkle with queso fresco cheese and cilantro. Serve with sour cream and lime wedges.
