Amazone recipe! Is that for one person? Xx
I’m going to be the dense one here…:) When you list the grains, they should be cooked, yes? So, 1/2 c. of cooked brown rice, 1/2 c. of cooked quinoa, yes? I know it is obvious we don’t want to eat raw rice, but just a technical reader, I guess. Thanks for sharing – I can’t wait to enjoy.
This is the perfect lunch, very healthy and highly nutritious. Nothing can be more fresh and delicious than vegetables! I use to eat very often this kind of salad, of course changing and combining several ingredients of the same kind.
This loos so good – I need to try it!
This is the perfect recipe for anyone who has a busy schedule 🙂
Thank you for sharing such a nutritious yet simple lunch tip <3 Will definitely try it soon!
