This flavor tastes very strange, tbh. I tried to use it as a base for Chinese style stir fry and the fake garlic flavor was extremely overpowering. I couldn't stand eating other flavors like teriyaki or cilantro in combination with it. It should probably taste okay when served alongside Western type dishes or dishes without sweet flavors. I think personally that the heavy garlic flavor is unnecessary. As for how to prepare it, I know you can cook it in the microwave (I don't like cooking with the microwave myself) but I just put it in my regular rice cooker with a bit more water than the package recommends and it cooked well that way.

I received the product for free from PINCHme and am happy that I was introduced to it so that I will now buy it! The garlic flavor was good and not overly strong... just right. I used it as a meal starter and added steamed broccoli, leftover grilled chicken breast meat and just like that I had a tasty easy to fix meal!

I received SEEDS OF CHANGE Certified Organic Quinoa & Brown Rice with Garlic, 8.5 oz. pouch from PinchMe for my honest opinion. I liked it. It was a lot in that bag and was easy to hear up in microwave. Have bought a few already for a side dish with dinner.

I'm not a fan of quinoa but this was great. It is so simple to pop into the microwave or even throw it in a pot on the stove. I add a but more garlic powder and some chicken broth to mine to give it extra flavor as it is still a tad on the bland side.

For rice lovers, this is a great healthy substitute. It has a lovely wild rice flavor and aroma, and pairs well with many main dishes. It was super easy to prepare with such a convenient pouch and stored easily without taking up too much pantry space. The quinoa and rice blend perfectly and give a rich earthy flavor that go with everything. I will be buying this and other varieties of Seeds of Change, luckily I got to sample this one free in exchange for my honest feedback.

I received a free sample from Pinch me. com. and I'm glad I did. I probably never would have tried it otherwise. It had a nice flavor, the texture took a few bites to get use to but it was still very good. We had some leftovers and I thought it was even better the next day.

I received a free pouch of Seeds of Change Certified Orgsnic Quinoa & Brown Rice with Garlic in my pinchme box. I don't usually go for microwaveable meals but this one was yummy and quick if you're in a rush. I bought it again because my kids liked it too

I purchased a box of several packages of the Seeds of Change brown rice & quinoa with garlic from Sam’s Club and it is delicious and super easy to prepare; just 90 seconds in the microwave. This is the second box I have purchased. My only wish is that they totally eliminate tapioca flour from the ingredients. I don’t usually eat any kind of “flour”, but since it is 6th on the list of ingredients, it isn’t a lot, and I am able to eat it. Keep up the great work! I look forward to trying more of this brand and if Seeds of Change would like to send me some to try, hey, I’m all for it and I’ll do a an honest review of those too! Here is what I made today. I call it my Asian Scrambled Bowl: 6oz of sautéed red & yellow bell peppers and green cabbage in 1/2 to 1 Tablespoon olive oil Grated ginger (optional) 4oz Seeds of Change rice/quinoa 3 eggs, scrambled (you could use just 2 eggs) Sprinkles of onion and garlic powder and salt Topping: Wasabi sauce and fresh cilantro (optional) Sauté veggies in olive oil or spray a non-stick pan with cooking spray to eliminate more oil. Grate a little fresh ginger to your liking, add in the rice/quinoa mixture, add sprinkles of dried onion and garlic powder or use fresh if you have it. Heat through and pour on the scrambled eggs. Stir occasionally until eggs are done. Top with toppings if you like. It was savory and delicious!

I received my sample from Pinch Me about 2 months ago. I decided to try it when I made some game hens. I added the new from the hands to the quinoa after cooking, and it was amazing. By itself, or with a main dish. Seeds of change is Cutting Edge delicious!

I received this as a Free Sample and wanted to try this out with my pan fried chicken. Preparation was simple and took no more than a couple of minutes. I was able to use the pan drippings from my chicken to cook the Quinoa and Brown Rice and definitely it added to the flavor of the meal. I have already purchased more pouches and will use these pouches for my quick-and-easy go-to meal when I have little time to prepare dinner. Thanks Seeds of Change!
