Savory Vegetarian Quinoa image

I've been experimenting with quinoa and vegetarian cooking. Came up with this last night and it was delicious! I wanted to save the recipe here and share it with others. I topped mine with some chopped avocado and chia seeds for extra health benefits.

The quinoa was a bit overcooked for my liking, but the flavors were still good.
