Quinoa with grilled vegetables
The grilling season has begun! When the weather permits, our family grills a majority of nights. We choose a protein, make a salad and grill some veggies.
This Quinoa with grilled vegetables recipe has been my go to side for grilling meals this year. Quinoa with grilled veggies, balsamic dressing and mozzarella cheese will be your new favorite!
You can grill whichever veggies you have on hand – I have done this recipe with portobello mushrooms and peppers, tasty! It is perfect when we have other families over for a BBQ. I love to start with this appetizer, which is another family favorite.
