Quinoa Vegetable Khichdi Recipe is a hearty preparation of quinoa, vegetables and spices, cooked together in a single pot.

By cooking it in a South Indian style, it brings the wholesome goodness of this superfood in a familiar and comforting and healthy form.

Did you know: Quinoa is called superfood with good reason. For starters, this whole-grain is naturally gluten-free. In addition, it is packed with iron, vitamin-B, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, vitamin-E and twice as much fibre as most other grains. However, what makes quinoa truly unbeatable, nutritionally, is that it contains every essential amino acid, unlike other grains, which makes it a complete protein.

Quinoa Vegetable Upma can be served with Lehsuni Pudina Chutney Recipe and Apple, Kiwi, Pineapple Juice Recipe
