  • heat a large saucepan over medium heat and swirl olive oil around the inside of the pan to coat. cook shallot in the hot oil until translucent, about 3 minutes; stir in cremini mushrooms, cooking and stirring until mushrooms are browned, 8 to 10 minutes. stir quinoa, thyme, bay leaf, kosher salt, and black pepper into mushroom mixture. cook, stirring often, until quinoa gives off a slightly toasted fragrance, about 5 minutes.
