Btw, I am am enjoying this bowl full of colourful veggies mixed with cooked quinoa. I love the taste of quinoa, for me it's like oats sibling. I mean you can cook them in both sweet and savoury form. I will soon share my bowl of sweet quinoa. But before that, try this one and lemme know how it was.

This was awesome! I substituted with quinoa this time and it was just awesome. I had some quinoa already cooked so I sautéd the veggies per the instructions, left out the water, stirred in the quinoa and seasoning and finished with the parmesan. So good and so much healthier! :chef

Superfood Quinoa Bowl Superfood Quinoa Bowl
This recipe was born at the time of the pandemic - where my husband and I had chosen to make the best of it through diet and exercise! I had become very avid about calorie counting and nutrition consumption - thus this recipe became as way for us to get a wide/r variety of vitamins, minerals, healthy fats, proteins and carbs. We each have one bowl a day though I half mine, and always have some on hand; frozen in the freezer!Nearly all of the vegetables we buy frozen so that we can limit our trips to the store. The first part of the ingredients is the two 1 gallon freezer bags which each make 18 bowls. We'll only be using one of those bags for this recipe.Serving size: 1 bowlCalories - 206Total Fat - 4gTotal Carbs - 31.2gProtein - 9.5gIf you'd like the full nutrition please let me know as I was unable to fit all the vitamin and minerals I've kept track of.Note: We try to buy all organic everything if you're wondering what to get on the ingredients, go for quality and limit additives!
