Well, this recipe takes me back! I was searching for vegetarian recipes and it hit me - I have a tab on the side of the blog of recipes that I have found and made over the years and absolutely loved.
As I was searching through the recipes, I found one that we used to make all of the time, and I loved it. It’s a Tex-Mex Quinoa, and it’s made with a recipe I found on Chelsea’s Messy Apron. NOTE - I’m not receiving anything from sharing the link - I want to give credit where credit is due. The recipe is awesome!
I like this recipe for so many reasons. It’s a crock pot recipe. We put it in the crock before we headed out, and when we got back - dinner was ready! The ingredients were easy to find, and overall it was relatively inexpensive. When you use the garnishes as Chelsea suggests, it elevates this plain looking bowl of quinoa to amazing. My favorite garnish is Guacamole. (With a capital G.)
We used to make this recipe for 5 of us. (2 of those 5 being hungry teenage boys.) When we made it over the weekend, we ended up having enough for us to eat a really good dinner and to have leftovers for 2 days of lunch! (Pictured above - one of my lunches, ready to go in the fridge.)
Whoop! That’s a win!
