Do you have to do anything to the quinoa besides cook it first? I’m very interested in using it for this recipe. It’s my first time using this ingredient 😊
Nope! That’s it. Enjoy!
Would collagen peptides work or would you suggest a protein powder like, BeWell by Kelly?
Hi! I haven’t tried collagen so I can’t confirm. I used pea protein powder from Ritual
