Tuscan Chicken Quinoa Bake
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly brush or spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with avocado oil or olive oil.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the quinoa, almond milk, coconut milk, broth, olive oil, onion, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.

  3. Fold in the shredded chicken, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, and lemon juice. Mix until well combined.

  4. Pour the mixture into the baking dish and press into an even layer, making sure most of the quinoa is submerged in liquid to ensure even cooking.

  5. If using, sprinkle the dairy-free cheese evenly over the top.

  6. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking for another 15–20 minutes, or until the quinoa is tender and the top is golden and bubbling. Optional: For a more golden top, broil on high for 2–3 minutes at the end.

  7. Let rest for 5–10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh basil if desired.
