I made this for my roommate and I last night. It was quick, easy, and even my picky eater roommate found it to be DELICIOUS! I’m gonna freeze the leftovers and eat them for dinner again sometime next week. Thanks for the idea!!!

YUM!!!!! I made this tonight with the idea that the super picky husband and children would probably run for the cereal with a glimpse of this…..the children did (they dont like beans lol) but the husband (shocking!) really liked it and said I can cook it on a normal basis and is on his second helping =D I used brown rice instead of quinoa (tried it once not a huge fan and I get a lot of unconsistant nutrional info on it) and I loved it too! I told the hubby to put cheese on it, it makes it even better and he said “its good without cheese” I was floored! lol anyways it ended up being more of a spanish rice instead of a stew because I cooked all the juice out (it probably was the only reason hubby even tried it)but this is defintely another winner roni!

Thank you Roni (again) for a great recipe!

This was pretty good. I ended up changing it a little by adding some frozen corn and not adding the cheese!

After successfully getting my husband and I to regularly eat veggies, I’m now trying to slip whole grains in our repertoire.

This looks similar to the chicken tortilla soup I make, AND it has quinoa.

Will try it soon! The comments have me convinced it’s worth it.

Made this the other night, everyone LOVED it. It really is filling and has great flavor.

I ate it as is. My boyfriend ate it as a burrito filling and asked that I make it again!

This is a great recipe, my whole family loved it. I just started using quinoa and found this a fabulous way to introduce it to the family. Would love more recipes like this.

I have made this several times already and I LOVE it!! It is soo yummy! Usually I skip the cheese, and lately I have been adding some hot sauce to spice it up a bit more. Thanks for all of your recipes Roni! Although I am a WW, I am a fan of quick healthy meals!

Hey Roni! Just found your website yesterday and made this recipe. My husband & I both LOVED it! We’d never had quinoa before, but we’ll defintiely use it a lot more! I’m already looking forward to the next recipes I’ll be using. As a non-cook, I’m actually looking forward to cooking!!! Keep up the good work! Thanks!

I have often printed Roni’s recipes but never made them until last night when we tried the turkey taco stew.

I was looking forward to the leftovers, but my husband and children were looking forward to the bottom of the pot.

Missy,
Yes the texture is very similar to couscous, but GOOD couscous, like the real whole wheat bulk couscous from speciality shops. Not like the soft stuff in the little white box from your regular grocery store.
Quinoa is *slightly* firmer than couscous. I would compare it to perfect aldente pasta pearls, or perhaps steel-cut oats.
For some, the shape is a little intimidating, mainly because of the curl.
I love Quinoa, and make a fabulous pilaf.
And I just invented a recipe that can use either Quinoa or whole wheat couscous. It’s Hawai’ian Chicken Couscous (or Quonoa).

Roni, I may just give you that recipe too, but only AFTER I see my Quiche.
::wink::
