Yum! Sounds wonderful. I love quinoa, too, and I'm always looking for good recipes to apply to this useful grain.
ReplyDeleteMy partner is wild about chorizo. And I love grains. This is a winner! Thanks. :)
ReplyDeleteI've got to get back into using quinoa, and definitely with chorizo...
ReplyDeleteQuinoa is so versatile--love it. Thanks for sharing and consistently posting simple yet artistic combinations.
ReplyDeleteI used quinoa a lot for a while but it's been just sitting in my cabinet lately. I don't know that I've ever had chorizo but it sounds great. This recipe is definitely on my list of things to try!
ReplyDeleteLooks yummy! There are some good mock veg sausages, and the smoked paprika should make the taste work. Glad to see you use this paprika -- I got some but have hesitated, not sure how much to use. This and the pumpkin seeds above too: starting points, thanks.
ReplyDeleteI'm so trying this. I've been using Quinoa as a breakfast food and am glad to see a relatively familiar recipe for a dinner that uses it.
ReplyDeleteJust ate this and it makes me wish I could get real Chorizo around here. Quinoa tasted great, taking on the flavour of the oil and broth. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of our go-to dishes now so thank you so much for posting it. It's easy and it tastes gooooood! :)
