Quinoa and Roasted Vegetables

Getting enough protein has always been an issue trying to live a vegetarian or vegan diet. Which is why I love how much protein quinoa has. Just like rice and beans quinoa has a very filling quality that is appealing to vegetarians. In this meal alone there are 23.1 grams of protein, with an additional 10 grams coming from the tofu.
