Heat a skillet over medium heat, cook and stir walnuts until toasted and fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes.
Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat, swirl to coat. Add shallots, saute until tender, about 1 minute. Add garlic, saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add quinoa, cook and stir until toasted, about 2 minutes.
Mix vegetable stock, thyme, and salt into quinoa mixture, bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until liquid is absorbed and quinoa is tender, about 12 minutes.
