I first came up with this recipe when I was looking for a quick and easy way to use up some leftover quinoa. I had some bell peppers and onions in the fridge, so I threw them in the skillet with the quinoa. I also added some spinach for some extra nutrition. The result was a delicious and satisfying breakfast that was ready in just minutes.
