Quinoa & Sweet Potato salad

I totally just copied and pasted the recipe from Just Cook Already. This is seriously the best dinner I've made in awhile. I doubled the recipe, but forgot to double the spinach. Definitely don't forget that!

1/2 c. dry quinoa

1 c. water

1 whole garlic clove, peeled

1 sweet potato (I used a smallish one)

1/2 onion

2-3 c. spinach

Feta cheese

*Makes 2 large servings as a main dish, 4 servings as a side dish (or for small appetites)

1. Put the quinoa, water, and garlic clove in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
2. While the quinoa is doing its thing, dice up the onion and cut the sweet potato into small cubes (I like mine pretty small).
3. Heat a saute pan over medium heat with a little olive oil (about 1 teaspoon). Put the diced sweet potatoes in, stirring every few minutes. Cover the sweet potatoes to trap a little steam and help tenderize them for a few minutes.
4. When the sweet potatoes are about halfway tender (which should be about when your quinoa is halfway done cooking, assuming you chop quickly ;), put the onions in with the sweet potatoes. Cook all those together until they are tender, then throw the spinach on top, continuing cooking until wilted. Remove from heat.
5. When your quinoa is finished cooking, fluff with a fork and smash up the garlic clove, spreading it throughout the quinoa. Combine the quinoa with the sweet potato/onion/spinach mix.
6. Season with salt and pepper. (I like sea salt best).
7. Sprinkle feta on top to your liking.
