Turkey Quinoa Bowls

By Fitnspicy @fitnspicy

I love the flavors of tacos and burritos but tend to make a big mess, enter the big bowl where you can mix together all that deliciousness. Easier to eat and customizable to what you like. My bowl was quinoa, turkey sausage, black beans with onions, tomatoes, a bit of cheese and topped with salsa. Scott had the same with about a half a bottle of hot sauce added to it.

It felt like the perfect comfort food. Hearty and full of flavor. We had this on an unseasonably cool day last week and it exactly what I needed.
