Quinoa is a perfect ingredient for casseroles and other easy, quick and delicious dishes. Add even more color and texture to your recipes with red or black quinoa; which tend to be firmer than white quinoa. With this incredibly practical and versatile recipe, you can easily swap out a few of the ingredients for whatever you have on hand to make your own casserole. It can even be baked ahead of time for days when you know you’ll be in a pinch around mealtime. If you don’t like shrimp, make a vegetarian version. Add more veggies to the quinoa, and it will taste just as delicious!
