Spiced Quinoa
Spiced Quinoa brings warm curry, cumin, and a hint of cinnamon together with fluffy grains for a fragrant, savory-sweet side. Chickpeas add hearty texture, while toasted pine nuts and plump raisins provide nutty crunch and gentle sweetness. Serve it warm or chilled alongside roasted meats or as a satisfying vegetarian dish.
