I’ve been a Soylent guy for years, so this is actually my first foray into any sort of regular cooking. Still need to cut my prep time down, but so far so good.
Ingredients: Quinoa, parsley, chickpeas, yellow bell pepper, green onions, almonds, dates. The original shaker came with a citrus/vinegar/spice dressing, but I just use what I have at hand.
Does it work well In a rice maker or is it convenient to boil like pasta?
I recently had sprouted buckwheat that turned out really well in the rice maker (although it took too long - I might have had too much water). However my grocery no longer carries it so …… Farro seems like an interesting one to try
Really, you just boil it like pasta and drain the water, then season how you’d like it. I can’t say I’ve tried it in a rice maker, but it could work? 🤔
I usually make a sweet version with butter, dried cranberries and currants and Penzey’s Pie Spice.

But I have made a savory version with mixed root vegetables.
That’s ambitious: I like it. I was thinking just plain, like white rice
I mean, it’s good plain too… you can make it how you like rice, or you can make it how you like oatmeal, it’s pretty versatile.
And if you get the $2 bags, it’s not like you’re risking much.
