***grains cook at a 1:2 ration with liquid. I find 1/2C dried grains per person works well.

1. Finely dice veggies and nuts into teeny tiny pieces
2. Mix dry goods together in rice cooker pot. add 1 cup vegetable broth and 1 cup water, oil and Bragg's.
3. turn on rice cooker or bring to a boil, cover and cook for about 20 minutes.
4. fluff with fork and serve.

***Left-over grains are AWESOME!!!! use in home made stuffing, veggie patties, salads, stir-fries or like oatmeal for breakfast.****

    Hi, sorry the measurements didn't show up. i'll adjust the recipe to show the preportions... it follows the same ratios as rice (1 part grains : 2 parts liquid. This one uses 1/2C quinoa, 1/2 C millet, 1 C Veggie Broth, 1 C water.
