I made the chinese fried quinoa for on the go last saturday, with a little twist, I added some finely diced ginger with the garlic and instead of the hot sauce I used dried chiliflakes. Also I had no green onion, but it tasted delicious all the same! Thanks for this great recipe! Definitely making it again. Also I would love more recipies with quinoa, I'm beginning to love that stuff :)
Tried Chinese version. Came out just perfect. My wife loved the taste. She made a broccoli version and my kid emptied the plate. Thank you for the great recipes.
I tried the Chinese one, but I added the mixed frozen vegetables (I had that in the freezer) and it still tasted so delish. Thanks for sharing your recipes "The Domestic Geek"
You... are... AWESOME! I started eating healthy lately but got sick of all the boring "health" foods. Your recipes look both fun and super delicious! Thanks!!
Eiman Abdalla Thank you so much Elman! Eating healthy is already tough but its even worse if the food is boring and bland. I hope you find these inspiring :)
Sara, I am so happy I've found you! Not only are your recipes wonderful, but watching and listening to you is so much fun!!! I have always cooked healthy meals, but I find that now, as seniors, we eat differently. Adding your fridge oatmeal and quinoa salads, along with morning smoothies, has been fabulous!!! I tell everyone I know to watch you, and I know, once Rachael, Guy and the biggies at the Food Channel read my emails, you're destined for greatness! Good luck, keep doing what you're doing, and know that I'm watching you 😍😍😍
I made the fried quinoa added green beans, red bell pepper, omitted the hot sauce but added a touch of dry mustard and chicken. It was awesome! I made the cheesy broccoli quinoa for my son I added, carrots, cauliflower and a little red bell pepper. He loved it!
I keep coming back to these recipes time and time again. Love them all, especially the Tangy Thai Quinoa! I always add extra peanut butter, though. Haha
That Chinese fried quinoa literally changed my life 😂 I ALWAYS have canned peas/carrots eggs and soy sauce in my fridge So basically I make it EVERY time I have leftover quinoa which is like every week 😂 I actually added some cooked ground turkey and it was delicious!
Love everything you are doing!! I have been looking for quick and easy ways to feed my teenagers. In grad school right now so no time, but your meal plans and recipes are helping big time! Thank you!
I made the cheesy broccoli quinoa and you saved our dinner it was delicious! We've taken out white rice, pasta, and bread from our diet and cooking is getting harder and harder :( would love more easy healthy recipes :)
Just started making quinoa and I did a similar recipe to the fried quinoa and Im in love with quinoa now. All the recipes here look amazing. I will be trying them for sure! Thanks💓
I enjoyed two of these salads today, the Tangy Thai one for lunch and now the Chinese Fried one for dinner. Both tasted great, were quick and easy to throw together and super pretty with all the colors(I've never used reb cabbage before, but it looks beautiful in salads). You've inspired me to start with meal prepping, so besides from these dishes I've got two jars filled with salad on hold in the fridge. Thank you so much for all of these great food ideas!
So, I found you during the perfect time in my life! I have just spent my final senior year eating crap and not exercising (totally unlike me). I was just never able to find amazingly delicious and easy recipes like yours! Finding your channel has been so exciting! As I'm transitioning into university, I really wanted to start eating right and prepping my meals beforehand because I did not want to succumb to binging on junk food because it was an easy way to eat whilst studying! Suffice to say, I've already gone out and bought tons of mason jars and I'll be making this! Thank you! X
sammmiii13 Hi! I'm so happy to hear that you're finding the recipes inspiring! I know how tough it can be to eat well when you're swamped so I really hope these help :D Thank you so much for watching and best of luck at school!
Love this! I'm South American and been eating quinoa since a kid. Traditionally we've always had quinoa in soup! I love these ideas, I will definitely try these. Your videos are awesome!
Hello, I am from Bolivia, and I eat QUINOA since I was born, it is a very nutritional food and gives a lot of energy, as everyone knows it is a food originating in the ANDES in South America, that is where I live, in the ANDES. I consume Quinoa about once a week, and in the way that I like the most, it is to cook the QUINOA as if it were rice, and then make a sauce with onion, tomato, salt and yellow pepper, all prepared with oil in a pan and toast. this sauce for about 20 minutes, and to give it that delicious touch we put a little grated cheese on it. Hmmm delicious. Here sometimes we accompany this delicious dish with a little hot pepper, but that depends on each person. Greetings from BOLIVIA, the land of QUINOA.
I really loved the Tangy Thai sauce. I tried the recipe but didn't use the red peppers or the beans. Instead I alternated with sweet corn and I used the cabbage. My whole family loved it. Great Job! It really is a must try. yummy.
Let me just say I am no cook by any means but I appreciate good food. I have a 15 yr old who told me she does not like quinoa. Well I made the fried quinoa with shrimp and made a liar out of her. Thank you soo much for making me look like a real cook. Lol. You are the best.
The first bowl looks incredibly delicious!! Thanks for making it easy for us and giving us many options. After I watch your videos, I get the grasp of things and play around with the dish sometimes!
the Chinese fried quinoa has become a staple lunch for me and I absolutely love it! better and healthier and cheaper than what you could get at a restaurant.
ok, i tried the first one and it s good :) I had all the ingredients, even already cooked quinoa from yesterday... I just didnt have any green onions :(, i bet it s even better with them. so thanks for the recipe! I already ate quinoa in 2 different ways in the past 2 days lol, so I didnt know what to do with it today. and there you were with these 3 wonderful recipes. I ll try the other two as well :))
I know someday you will be on the cooking channel or food network, it happened to Laura Vitale (a fellow youtuber) and I know it's going to happen for you Domestic Geek!
I just made the tangy thai recipe.... there are no words! Amazing! This and the quinoa tabouli salad from Clean & Delicious are my new go-to recipes using quinoa.
you can do a stalk at home instead of buying the commercials ones which has 60% of salt! its that simple : a carrot , an onion , a celery , a potato . and you can add other vegs too if you like cut them into large pieces put them with 3 Litres of cold water then on fire and cover them , check when they start to boil then put the timer for 35 Minutes. then thats it .... you can put the vegs a part and use your home made tasty delicious healthy ( Brodo ) Italian name :)
when I search for quinoa recipe for my husband your 3 recipes came out first and of course, I watched it. I'm so happy that I found you, domestic geek!. You truly made my day!!!!! DEFINITELY SUBSCRIBED!!!!!
I have tried the mushroom soup and it came out so delicious. Thank you, its all most the same as the one they got in Mariano's. I used regular 2% milk maybe that's why it wast so creamy.
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH That's how you pronounce "Quinoa" like.. Key-nwa (2 syllables) LOL I was saying it like ka-no-wa, emphasis on the "no" part. Like Canola Oil but take out the letter L. That's COLLEGE for ya =D. Don't even know how to pronounce names lol
Suzanne Ramoundos I agree. A lot of recipes out there have so much sodium already then I hear the "cook" say "add some salt" and I think what, why? NO! Sodium is not your friend. Just a teeny, tiny pinch, but calm down! 😊
Claudette Sodium keeps our fluids in balance in our bodies so we don't dehydrate, helps our many muscles contract and helps with our nerve impulses. We need 2,400 mg of sodium a day.
lemon juice is a good alternative to salt. Vegetables already have natural salts. I have been on a low sodium diet for awhile now and I have to say that food tastes soo much better since I lowered my salt intake. Salt will kill your taste buds.
Heather Lubbers, I was told with Hi Blood Pressure no more than 1200mg. But regardless, have you taken notice of how small an amount that actually is? Add up the natural salts in things as pure as spinach, salmon, bread...it adds up quick. But thanks for your input.
Quinoa with spinach, garlic, chia, basil, parsley and salt, cooked with water ..it pretty good. It is a side dish for me. I will try Tangy Thai Quinoa..it looks good
I usually watch a few videos by people before deciding whether or to subscribe but I felt your energy in the first 5 seconds of this video and I knew I'd love you. Keep it up!
Just made the stir fry recipe to add to my salmon as a meal prep, had a little left over to taste and yum! Thanks for all the ideas! I'll be making the Tangy Tai recipe next! Love your videos!!
I cooked the chinese stir fry recipe today. I used tofu scramble to replace eggs. Also, I used liquid amino to substitute soy sauce. it's really good. Thanks for the receipe.
Thank you so much!!! I was looking for a quinoa recipe and these ones were the best ones so I instantly made the Chinese Fried Quinoa and it was AWESOME!! Thank you so much!! I had no idea how easy and delicious it was to make!!
