QUINOA VEGGIE “FRIED RICE” #dinner #rice #noodle #healthyfood #recipes
Quinoa is a superb substitute in this protein-stuffed veggie "singed rice"!
It has such a significant number of astonishing medical advantages with it's plenitude of protein, unsaturated fats and basic nutrients and minerals, and it even lessens the danger of cardiovascular infection and malignant growth (as per Eat to Defeat).
Besides, I love its flavor! It worked so well in this "singed rice" dish, merging so perfectly together with every one of the veggies. Besides, the sprinkled Sriracha was only the what tops off an already good thing!
