An Italian-inspired meal made even more heart-healthy and protein-packed with quinoa!
So I had a bit of a revelation the other day. A scary revelation might I add.
Okay, here goes.
I don’t think I could EVER be a parent.
See, I was with my niece and nephews the other night, playing around and jumping on the bed, as usual. But my nephew, Aiden, fell off the bed twice, resulting in a backwards summersault to the floor, which prompted two panic attacks on my end.
Apparently, my freak outs freak the kids out.
So Jason and I are working on me “chilling” when this stuff happens. But man, oh man, is it hard.
But I’ll tell you what’s not hard. This salad here. It comes together in just minutes, giving you that classic Italian caprese flavors in a more health-conscious manner using quinoa and avocado, leaving you with a summer dish that’s so perfect, so light and oh-so-refreshing.
And you know I’ll only be using Bob’s Red Mill‘s quinoa – an Oregon-based company that utilizes simple, old-world technology to mill hundreds of all-natural whole grain products, manufacturing natural foods in the natural way.
Sometimes natural is just the best way to go!
