Yes, I thought I quinoa, but I’m not sure that it’s a true vegetable. I’m going to look it up. Thank you!
Side question: Do you consider dried beans a vegetable?
‘quelites’ general Mexican term for Chenopodium and Amaranthus greens, usually picked incidentally to other crops.
I don’t really consider dry beans a vegetable. Culinarily, I use them as a starch or protein. Nutritionally, they don’t really have the vitamin profile of veggies.

I thought that a quince was a type of fruit similar to a pear.
Simular is pushing it, but we call tomatoes vegitables and there fruits. It might help to know what context of your search is.

True. Just compiling a list of vegetables A - Z. I looked online at a couple of lists, but they are incomplete, for example a few of them didn’t list anything for “J”. I thought right away of Jicama. I can’t find any lists with anything for “Q”, though I’m really thinking that Quinoa should be listed.
Vegitable doesnt by defnintion exclude anything thing from a plant as long as its edible.
I’m looking for traditional vegetables and not what people would traditionally call a fruit (which is why tomato is on the list even though it is technically a fruit 
.)
