I appreciate the surplus in vegan meal recipes, as I am trying to eat less meat and dairy. I have made and enjoyed your mushroom barley soup and sesame cauliflower, and this looks just as delicious, so thank you for this.

Possibly the best office lunch option ever! Have you ever tried overnight oats? Ooooh I will definitely be trying this! I love quinoa bowls and have done something similar but never with the cream part. Coconut milk sounds like an awesome addition and I already see all the yummy variations — thanks Katie!

Would this recipe be as good with only red quinoa? I usually cook with white but currently only have the red kind.

I just happened to have all the ingredients, so I made this right away. It was creamy and delicious, perfect for lunch on a cold day! Good question! Can someone help tell me what kind of flavor this would end up having?

This recipe tastes cheesy and mild. Very similar to many comfort foods. I just made this dish and it was delicious. To me it tasted like Risotto without the labor. Definitely will make this again.

Thank you so much for sharing. I made this tonight and used low fat almond milk instead of cream and did not add the optional buttery spread either and it was delicious..

I also used spinach instead of kale. It was true comfort food. One of my favorite ways to make quinoa even more comforting is to add canned tomatoes or tomato paste with curry powder! It tastes like a quinoa curry this way! SO yummy. I love this idea, especially since people are making more of an effort to eat plant-based and healthier as well!

I made this earlier this week….. so good. Thank you for sharing another super yummy recipe!!! I like to use spinach instead of kale. One of my very favorite Chocolate Covered Katie recipes 🙂. I made this in my Instant Pot.

I quick-released the pressure and added the remaining ingredients. It turned out perfectly! Thank you!. We love nutritional yeast and added more when serving. I went with coconut milk and kale.

Quinoa seeds are very healthy to body It have a rich amount of fiber,antioxidants and iron. This recipe is fantastic! I also love that it takes almost no time or effort at all!

Great recipe, Katie! When I got back, the house smelled delicious but would have smelled that much better if I had remembered to turn off the burner before I left. Fortunately, the recipe is so quick to put together that I was able to make a second batch, which was somehow even better than the first.

Thank you for the recipe! This is one of my all-time favourite recipes of yours!! I love subbing onion powder for half a diced onion, and I definitely love to triple the recipe because I want it to last!!!

There was a day I subbed the coconut milk for cream of mushroom soup, and added in chopped mushrooms in addition to spinach and it was heavenly!! This recipe is so flexible, fast, and fun! Thank you Katie! Great recipe! I substituted homemade tofu ricotta for the buttery spread and the cashew cream and added a whole bag of frozen chopped spinach.

It was fabulous! Thanks Katie for another marvelous recipe! Ive made this for dinner tonight, and even without the addition of cream, it tastes amazing! My only concern,is that even though I have followed the recipe exactly, there is just about enough for me, let alone servings!

I am in the UK so have a feeling my measuring cup is smaller than a US one. Is there any way you could let me know how many grams one cup would be, so I can readjust the recipe?

for reference, my measuring cup came out at g of raw quinoa. It is my new favorite comfort food and will become part of the rotation of regulars. I love this recipe and make it often, but to say it serves 4 is a major stretch!

I get 2 meager portions out of this recipe. I made this tonight. Wow, so delicious!! Absolutely delish. Thanks for making me a convert. Bloating, heartburn, aching joints, insomnia, headaches, trouble swallowing, just to name some. Ok, thanks so much, looking forward to more of your healthy recipes.
