I usually do most of my cooking for the week on Sunday so these can be frozen and reheated later. They are very filling and very healthy. Feel free to substitute any veggies or meat you like or have on hand. This is my first recipe on here.

Cook Quinoa as instructed on package (basically 1 part quinoa 2 parts water and boil for 15-17 min)
