Quinoa with black beluga lentils and stir fry veg in sweet chilli sauce

12 Replies

Hi everyone, this s what I made for dinner its quinoa with diced onion stir fry veg sautéed in a little olive oil before adding back beluga lentils which I seasoned with sweet chilli sauce yeast extract and turmeric and left it cook gently away.

Quinoa is a complete food making it a great choice for a meal accompaniment and it makes a nice change. And a nice easy wholesome meal which I enjoyed. 😊

Hi Hidden ,

Your dinner sounds and looks wonderful. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I like having stir fry when it’s possible for a dinner now and then.😀👍

Hi Leah and thank you as I really like a stir fry sometimes and know that quinoa is great for those of you who need to be careful with carbs because of your diabetes.

I hope that you enjoy your day now. 😊

I went to buy quinoa from my favourite supplier yesterday and apparently the whole UK harvest of it failed this year. Hope they try again next year.

You’re welcome, Hidden ! Quinoa has a good amount of protein and also is low carb. for either a side dish or main meal. One type of food I like a lot to have now and then.😀👍👍

Well thanks Jerry, because I have a vacuum packed pouch of beluga lentils just awaiting a good recipe and I'm always looking for another good quinoa recipe too, so here's a great combination. It looks so tasty! 👍😊
