I have made this several times now and it is definitely a new family favorite! I have made a few modifications though – I make double the amount of dressing and put in extra balsamic… We like our balsamic. I don’t use it all, but any leftover gets used on a salad or for dipping bread. I also sauté zucchini with some garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper and add that into the mix. The only other thing I do is marinate the vegetables and cheese in the balsamic/oil mixture before adding it to the quinoa. That way everything is sure to be seasoned and lovely.

Made this for the family tonight. They were troopers and gave it a shot even though I couldn’t really explain what quinoa is!! I am terrible at “season to taste” and, although the recipe is beautiful and healthy, mine was a little bland. I’m going to add more salt and pepper and eat it again for lunch tomorrow and see if I can bump it up to a 5.
