Rinse and cook the quinoa according to the package. Once cooked, leave covered and set aside.

Place a large pan over medium heat. Add the oil and heat for just a few moments before adding the carrots. Once the carrots are added, cover and allow to cook for 2-3 minutes or until they have somewhat softened. Add the remaining chopped vegetables, minced garlic, and seasonings, stirring every few minutes to evenly cook. Add the shrimp, cover, and allow to cook for 3-4 minutes. Slowly stir in the cooked quinoa and liquid aminos/soy sauce. Cook until the onions are translucent and the shrimp has cooked through.

Enjoy!
