I like this. I wasn't super great, but it was good. I tweaked the recipe slightly, using quinoa instead of millet and I skipped the corn. I would have to agree with some of the other reviews that it was a bit mushy. Maybe cutting down the liquids a bit would help. I made this with the chickpea cutlets from the Veganomicon cookbook and they went really well together. I'll definitely make this again, but I'm going to have to play around with the liquids and grains a bit.

We got this recipe many years ago out of Bobbie Hinman's "Lean, Luscious and Meatless" cookbook and it has been a favorite ever since, even with the kids. It's very good but very, very thick. Overcooking will definitely leave it mushy and lose the wonderful definition of all the different grains. We do vary the grains, too, according to what we have on hand - just make sure to use 1 cup altogether. Sometimes we even use the leftovers (if there are any!) as burrito filling the next day.
