Prepare quinoa according to package directions. You may use a rice cooker for this to make it easier.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add in the minced garlic, asparagus, and onion and cook over medium heat for 10-15 minutes or until tender. I prefer my asparagus a bit less tender, so you can add it in last if you prefer.
Add the spinach to the mixture and cook 3-4 minutes or until it wilts.
Next, add the already prepared quinoa and stir the mixture to combine all the ingredients.
Cook for 3-4 minutes, then stir in Parmesan cheese.
Stir the mixture allowing the cheese to melt.
Add salt & pepper to taste.
