I am a health food nut. I choose ingredients that are rich in nutrients that would keep our body and mind healthy. Quinoa the ancient grain is popular around the world. Quinoa is high in protein. This recipe is loaded with healthy veggies. Cabbage contains cancer-fighting ingredients. It contains beneficial substances like Vitamin C, B6, Folic Acid, Potassium, Calcium, Biotin, Magnesium, Manganese and etc. At least twice a week I add cabbage to my diet. Veggie rich quinoa is seasoned with cumin, fenugreek, curry leaves, . Sauteed the onion and added carrot and green peas along with the cabbage A very simple and delicious veggie curry. I added cooked Quinoa, the ancient grain that is high in protein. As far as possible I use ingredients not sprayed with pesticides. I used organic quinoa.
