Quinoa is a complete protein, while rice is more affordable.

Rinse sorghum under cold water to remove any debris.

Combine sorghum and water in a pot; add salt to taste.

Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low and cover.

Simmer for 50-60 minutes until tender and water is absorbed.

In a separate pan, heat olive oil over medium heat.

Add chopped onion, garlic, carrots, and celery; sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in bell pepper and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.

Add cooked sorghum to the vegetable mixture; stir to combine.

Season with herbs, black pepper, and lemon juice to taste.

Fold in spinach until wilted, about 2 minutes.

Adjust seasoning as needed and serve warm.

Garnish with nuts or seeds for added texture.
