Recipe tips
  • You can assemble these the day before and leave in the fridge overnight and then bake them just before they are needed.
  • You could add other spices, such as curry powder, or use couscous instead of quinoa.
  • Freezing instructions: Freeze in portions then defrost in the microwave. Heat until piping-hot, stirring regularly. Eat immediately and discard any leftovers.
