Quinoa and Sauteed Veggies

I’m sure I’ve mentioned it before, but quinoa is one of my favorite foods!  If you missed my post about quinoa and aren’t sure what the heck it is, you can read about it here.  This is one of my favorite meals and can be prepared with a variety of different ingredients with whatever veggies you have on hand.  Get creative and share your creations!

We have all different combinations of vegetables, depending what is in season, on sale or we have on hand.  Bell peppers are a great way to add some additional color too.

My family loves fresh zucchini and squash and we eat both frequently during the summer when they are in season.
