This Vegan Quinoa Bake is a great healthy choice for lunch or dinner. Serve it with some salad or new potatoes for a delicious meal.
Quinoa is high in protein, fibre, contains plenty of amino acids, and provides many great vitamins. It also has various beneficial antioxidants.
For anyone looking for a quick and easy meal this one is great; it takes about 30 - 40 minutes to make and makes enough for 4-6 people.
This dish is delicious hot or cold and the leftovers can be eaten for up to 5 days after cooking. Take the left overs in a lunch box at work or on a picnic for a nutritious lunch.
This meal can be made completely gluten free. Quinoa is naturally gluten free, however, use gluten free flour and bread crumbs to make this meal completely gluten free.
I love quinoa, I add some into every rice dish I make. So I have quarter the amount of quinoa to rice. It helps add extra protein to my meals. It's also especially good if, like me, you have a toddler who only ever wants to eat plain rice.
I hope you love this as much as I do!

Quinoa Bake - Serves 4-6
Ingredients
150g Quinoa
325ml Vegetable Stock
1 Small Red Onion
1 Small Red Pepper
2 Spring Onions
2 tbsp Oil - I use vegetable but any oil should work
125g Bread crumbs
2 tbsp Plain Flour
1 tsp Mixed Herbs
½ tsp Turmeric
2 tbsp Grated Vegan Cheese (Optional)
Method
Preheat the oven to 180c.
Rinse the quinoa under cold water until clean.
On medium heat, boil the quinoa with the vegetable stock until the quinoa has absorbed all the liquid.
Prepare the vegetables by cutting them all into small pieces.
Fry the vegetables on medium heat with 1 tbsp of oil until the vegetables have softened and turned transparent.
Let the quinoa and vegetables cool slightly before the next step.
Mix the quinoa, vegetables, bread crumbs, flour, herbs, turmeric and 1 tbsp oil together until well combined.
Pour the mix into an oven dish and use the back of a spoon to press the mixture down.
If using, sprinkle the cheese on top.
Bake in the oven for 15 minutes.
Serve
Enjoy!
