After reading others' reviews, I added mild salsa instead of tomato sauce. That made this plenty spicey, and I'll be making this again.

It was ok, but surprisingly bland. I had to really up the spices to get anything out of this. I'll probably add more green pepper, and maybe some black beans or corn to add more texture. Otherwise, it was pretty mushy.

Our family didn't really enjoy this recipe, even after upping the spices. It worked ok IN a burrito, but not as a separate side dish.

This is a good "base" recipe, but I did add quite a bit to increase the flavor. I only used half the tomato sauce, and replaced the other half with mild salsa. The seasonings I doubled, and maybe even tripled the garlic powder (I never measure my garlic powder). I added a can of drained, rinsed black beans and a can of diced green chiles, then piled it all into some lightly roasted red bell pepper cups, topped with cheese, baked for 15 minutes and served it as stuffed peppers. I've also added ground meat on several occasions, it works wonderfully.

A good recipe, but definitely needed more spice (increase the amount of cumin for sure) for my tastes and I think salsa would work better than tomato sauce. A nice way to cook quinoa, though, and you can make it a full meal by adding black beans. Excellent for lunch the next day, and I like the idea of putting them in peppers. Thanks for sharing!
