Amazing! My family isn’t vegetarian but we love this recipe. So good on a cold day! Tonight I put in kale and butternut squash instead of the chard and sweet potato. Delish!
Wish you make a tasty dish!
I’m wondering if you could put the Quinoa in at the beginning without precooking it?
I have not tried, but I encourage your creativity 🙂
