I liked this recipe very much. I used portobello mushrooms because that is what I had in the fridge. I'll make this again.

Instead of cayenne I added canned chipotle peppers in adobe sauce. These peppers are VERY spicy, use sparingly. I halved the original recipe portion and only used one small pepper, discarded seeds and chopped very fine. It added the perfect smokey kick to this recipe. I have recently incorporated quinoa into my diet and this is a great recipe for the fall, very earthy with the mushrooms and toasted pecans. And I think any winter squash would be great in this recipe.

Awesome! I followed the recipe to a T and it turned out fantastic. The sweet potatoes and pecans give this dish plenty of flavor. I did have to add water to keep the vegetables from burning.

I love this recipe. My kids do not go for spicy things so I used cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and agave nectar instead of cayenne. It went welll with the sweet potato...next time Ill even season the quenoa too.

I love finding new recipes using quinoa. This one was a little spicy for me. Next time I'll make the following modifications: 1, replace ¼ t cayenne with ¼ t cinnamon (cinnamon is the perfect companion for sweet potatoes and pecans); 2, begin preparing and cooking the vegetables first (before cooking the quinoa); 3, add an extra tablespoon of olive oil prior to adding the mushrooms, sweet potatoes and spices; 4, five minutes into cooking the vegetables add ¼ cup of water to the vegetables. I loved this so much, I’m thinking of adding this to our Thanksgiving menu. Thank you lep413 for a delicious recipe.

I was really concerned until I mixed everything together. Then the flavors mixed just right and it turned our great! Nice vegetarian meal.

This is a very healthy recipe, but overral this dish was ok. I thought the sweet potato was soggy and it didn't have much flavor. I would add different veggies next time.

Really good stuff! Turned out better than I expected - even my partner liked it! And he's rarely into things that's out of the norm (i.e. other than pasta, roast meat, veges, beans, chips etc). I added peas to give it some colour. Also, added a couple of sticks of celery which seems to really add that extra something that seems missing otherwise...also tossed in a couple of small fresh chillies in for an extra spice zing.

This was pretty good flavor wise. The only thing I didn't like was how smushy the potatoes got. I put the left overs in the broiler for a while untill the potatoes crisped up a bit. It was much better after that.

Great flavor, really good. I used chicken broth to cook the quinoa in and I used about a cup of quinoa. I also left out the nuts.

This was a cheap, healthy recipe. Next time I will double the quinoa and add another flavorful vegetable like corn or green pepper.

I caramelized the onions which gave this dish a beautiful color and wonderful sweet flavor. Toasting the quinoa and nuts was also a nice touch. I thought there was plenty of cayenne pepper as written. I will definitely make this again. Thank you lep413 for sharing.

definitely lacking some seasoning, maybe more garlic? use a little less cayenne pepper if you don't want it too spicy. great healthy vegan combination of foods!!

Absolutely delicious. I have a husband that needs to have flavorful food, and he really enjoyed this one. We ate it for breakfast! I was able to get it ready faster than the time specified (took me about 45 minutes). If using as a main dish, have a protein on the side.

Definitely a keeper! We loved it! I substituted paprika for cayenne. We were pretty hungry so I added some spicy Italian chicken sausage, although it'd be great meatless too.
