“Easy” Quinoa with Mushrooms and Asparagus
For this EASY recipe I mix it with mushrooms, avocado, tomatoes, asparagus, artichoke hearts, and then I toss in a cubed up veggie burger with some fresh basil and green onion. NOTE: This is only for 2 servings so if you are like me and are going to put in the effort, why not double everything, right? Also, I usually cook a bunch of quinoa at a time so I can just be steps ahead and already have it made.
