I don't use the full amount of chili powder—instead, I do half chili powder and half paprika. I also skip the jalapenos. This was my husband's first time trying quinoa, and he wasn't a fan of the texture, but I love everything about this dish. Next time, I'll double the salt. It pairs really well with sour cream!

Lots of chopping but easy meal! I added some extra seasonings like cumin for some extra flavor. It does make A LOT so its great to meal prep!
