Quinoa Harvest Stuffing

Quinoa Harvest Stuffing blends fluffy quinoa with roasted butternut squash and zucchini, bright bursts of cranberry, and tender nuggets of apricot for a balanced sweet-tart bite.

Quinoa Harvest Stuffing
  1. 1

    Bring the vegetable stock to a boil in a saucepan, then lower the heat to low and stir in the quinoa. Cover and let it simmer until the quinoa absorbs the liquid, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat.

  2. 2

    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir the butternut squash and zucchinis in the hot oil until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Stir the quinoa into the vegetables, then gently mix in the green onions, apricots, cranberries, and parsley. Drizzle with lime juice to taste.
