Quinoa Mung Khichdi

India's most popular one-pot comfort meal. We traded rice for quinoa and we promise, you won’t miss it. The texture is similar to soupy oatmeal with the creaminess of risotto. Since we traded the rice for quinoa, it is 100% guilt-free. Enjoy it for lunch, dinner and even breakfast, we do!
