Balsamic Quinoa

Your favorite salad dressing just got a little better, use it flavor quinoa! (Or rice too, if you’re so inclined.)

  • 1C cooked quinoa
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper chopped
  • 1/2C sugar snap peas, chopped
  • 1/4C almonds, chopped
  • 2-4T balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing (I used Trader Joes)

Saute peppers, snap peas and almonds. Add cooked quinoa to the skillet and heat together. Pour balsamic dressing over the mixture, and serve warm.

NOTE: Of course, you can swap the peppers and peas for any kind of veggies you have in your fridge. Balsamic dressing is the key here.

Starting my raw challenge a day early!

Why wait til Monday when I can start being RAWESOME tomorrow? I stocked up on a ton of fruit from Trader Joe’s yesterday, so all I need are my veggies (more like half of the produce section from Whole Foods…) and I’ll be good to go! Let the detoxing begin.

Leave any recipe requests/grocery list suggestions/general questions in my ask and I’ll check them out in the morning!

Love and veggies,
Madde
