For a richer flavor, toast the quinoa in the dry saucepan for 2-3 minutes before adding the vegetable stock. Feel free to experiment with other herbs and spices like cumin, coriander, or a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. For a vegan option, ensure your vegetable stock is vegan-friendly. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro for added freshness.

Jan 14, 2024I used rice instead of quinoa and it tasted pretty good, I needed to add a little more vegetable broth to prevent the rice from drying out!
