This is one of my go-to quick weekday meals. It is super simple; barely any prep and only a few ingredients. All you need is a couple of leeks, quinoa, teriyaki and soy sauce, and your preferred toppings. I tend to go for feta* cheese and crunchy fried onions. Walnuts are yummy too. The exact ratio of teriyaki to soy sauce is different each time and would depend on what you like, but the teriyaki should be more than the soy sauce. The dish has a nice mild flavour. If you want to spice it up a little, just add a crushed clove of garlic and some dried or fresh pepper.
*I have been leaning more towards a vegan diet lately and have been researching vegan cheeses. I haven't found a feta alternative yet, but I am intruiged by the Mozarella Aquafaba Cheese by Avocados and Ales.
