Notes
This high protein meal can be served warm or cold. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days, or freeze for up to a month. Use leftover quinoa for a quicker option, and feel free to add cooked chicken or tofu for more protein. You can also adjust the spices to your taste.
