    Quinoa Stir Fry with Vegetables. - Save some time cooking big batches of quinoa or rice to make healthy meals during the week, like this quinoa stir fry with vegetables. It's so tasty!

    We make Asian food all the time because we love the taste and how simple it usually is. This quinoa stir fry with vegetables is not an exception, it's so delicious, simple and good for your body because is really nutritious.

    If you love Asian-style recipes as much as we do, you should give our brown rice stir fry with vegetables and also our vegan noodle stir fry a try. We've shared other stir fry recipes (like these vegan stir-fried Udon noodles or this amazing tofu stir fry with rice and veggies) because we make them very often on a daily basis.

    To make a stir fry at home is really easy, you just need to cook the veggies (steam, boil or sautée them), cook the main ingredient (quinoa, rice, chickpeas, tofu, whatever you want) and sautée both with your favorite sauce and the spices or ingredients you prefer. I usually boil or steam the veggies first and then I sautée them, that way I need to use less oil and the vegetables are so tasty and crunchy.

    If you want to save some time on a daily basis, cook big batches of quinoa, rice or dried legumes and you'll be able to make healthy meals in just a few minutes. This recipe is perfect for this or to use up leftover quinoa.

      I loved this and thought it simple to make; I added some chopped bok choy, a bit of baby corn and bean sprouts, along with leftover cooked broccoli. At the end, I made a well in the pan to uncover the bottom and cracked in a fresh egg (no, I am not vegan). I cooked it 2-3 minutes longer and once it was scrambled, I stirred it in to the veggies and quinoa. I will definitely make this again!

      I found it a bit bland, so had to add some vegetable stock and salt and pepper. Also the quantities would no way satisfy 4 appetites in my home, barely enought for 2 adults.

      I made this tonight. It was super easy and tasty. I added some mushrooms. I think I won't add cinnamon next time. But i will definitely be making again with my own twist. Thank you.
