Mexican Quinoa Casserole
Ok, I won't lie. This is not the most beautiful picture I have ever taken of my food. Can you just take my word that this casserole is not only easy to make, but tastes delicious. SO delicious in fact that you will not miss that fattening Mexican food you are used to. I swear. Not only is this dish SUPER easy to make it is really versatile. You can throw whatever you have on hand in it. To stay with the mexican theme I added black beans, corn and chilies, but you can just as easily add sun dried tomatoes, spinach and feta and you have a Greek style dish. See.Easy.
I also used a sharp cheddar so I didn't have to use that much of it. I served this with some Greek yogurt and a side salad and I was one happy girl. I even went for seconds. Whatever, it's quinoa- don't judge me.
