Not that long ago I reviewed Hello Fresh‘s great meal delivery service with this post.

With the box that I received I was able to make three meals:

 

Steak and Brussels Sprouts Stir Fry

 

Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Lemony Potatoes and Zucchini

 

and this wonderful meal, Chicken Quinoa Stew

This was a huge hit in my house! I was incredibly surprised that my kids willingly ate a stew with large visible chunks of green things.  That NEVER happens.

I made quinoa only once before this and truthfully I really didn’t like it. But in this recipe it is delicious. I was quite hesitant to eat this but the first taste had me hooked. I will be making this one again as well as the other two.
