Mealthy Tip

Add your favorite Mexican-inspired toppings. My topping suggestions: salsa, shredded lettuce, avocado, cheese, sour cream, pickled jalapeños, red onions, green onions, or cilantro.

If you do eat meat or animal products, a hard-boiled egg is an excellent protein option!

Sam Chandler says:

This girl is quinoa obsessed so I couldn't wait to try this recipe. If ya'll have never made quinoa in a pressure cooker, you are doing it all wrong! The PC cooks quinoa perfectly every single time. This is a fail proof recipe and I love to make it for meal prep for the week.

Max Heron says:

This is one of my favorite quinoa recipes. I used my favorite jarred tomato salsa pinto beans instead of kidney beans, and added a little extra cumin. The quinoa cooks wonderfully in the pressure cooker, perfect texture. I'm tempted to actually take this recipe and wrap the beans and quinoa it in a tortilla to make an actual burrito!

Andrea John says:

I LOVE this dish!!! Trying on 9 minutes instead of 10 this time around to see if the quinoa is a bit less mushy. Bur nonetheless it’s still amazing flavors and very filling-only added cilantro and avocado!

Elena Weissman says:

Followed recipe exactly and ended up putting it in tortillas for a true burrito. Great flavor and good meatless meal. Seemed just a touch over cooked and a little mushy but still very good. Will definitely make again.

Dorothy Boucher says:

This looks so good, I am not very fond of quinoa, maybe I had it young and didn't like it or the way someone made it, not sure but I'll have to try this dish, everything looks so good. @tisonlyme143

Amy Bryce says:

Delicious! I did cook it for 1-2 minutes less than directed as others indicated. Was glad I did! Will be making this again!

Walter Danger says:

This is an absolutely great start! For my taste buds I jazzed it up a bit; bone both instead of water, a large jalapeño, 2 arbor peppers, sweet onion, used Newman’s Mango salsa for some sweetness. Once done I made actual burritos out of the mix with cheese, salsa , sour cream and lettuce. Next time more cumin, a bit of cayenne powder and some more hot peppers. Great texture and taste, terrific way to have quinoa. Easy and fast, hardest part is prep. Change this one around and make it perfect for your taste buds, your family will enjoy it.
