A second scrumptious quinoa recipe I made consisted of a veggie combination. I love veggies! The basic combination was white quinoa with roasted balsamic mushrooms, arugula, and some seasoning like garlic, salt, and turmeric from my nearby Whole Foods Market. Why this combination? Well, earlier in the week, I had indulged in a flatbread pizza at Houlihan's with my grandma at lunch one day. The flatbread was topped with roasted balsamic mushrooms and arugula. So, I decided to go home and satisfy my craving for that delicious flatbread with a quinoa base instead! For leftovers the next day, I even threw in some corn, tomatoes, and black beans. Either way is delicious! Add extra veggies for pizzazz! (Extra veggies never hurt nobody) Plus, I love the explosion of flavor in my mouth :)
