If you start the quinoa at the same time as the mushrooms, it takes half the time. I serve mine with fresh chopped red pepper and avocado for some crunchiness and more deliciousness

This is better as a side dish then main unless you plan on tweaking it with some more protein.

Oregano makes a great substitute for the thyme if you don’t have any on hand. It really adds to the savoury taste the mushrooms give.
