I love being home with access to a full kitchen because I am left feeling so inspired to whip things up. After pinning this Annie’s Eats recipe for Mexican Quinoa, my mom and I decided to give our hand at it and we loved it. One modification I’d recommend? Using fresh corn vs. frozen as it gave a nice crunch to the overall texture. Be sure to create your own “toppings bar” as I was referring to it with spicy salsa, some sour cream, shredded cheese and avocado. I highly recommend this recipe as it is so easy and so satisfying (plus it’s loaded with protein thanks to the black beans and quinoa).
Happy Tuesday!

You can also sub in greek yogurt for the sour cream and get more protein with less fat.
such a good idea, lauren!
Looks delicious ?
