Now for the Scoop! This was absolutely delicious. Call me bias after a quick 3 mile run but this went down super easy and was very pleasant to eat. Not only is this a vegan friendly dish but it was a hit with my 7 year old as well. Quinoa provides a nutty grain taste so it works very well with stir fry. Quinoa as a complete protein so consider to start using this in place of whole grain brown rice!
