Salmon with Quinoa Fried 'Rice'

Last night I made a surprisingly scrumptious side dish. I started by cooking 3/4 cup of quinoa on the stovetop in 1 1/2 cup of water. Once the quinoa was nice and fluffy, I stirred in some sliced scallions, soy sauce and steamed cauliflower that I mashed with a fork. I want to try adding…

The buttercream icing may seem like an odd little gift (and it is), but Publix sells their…

My mom and I shared dinner duty last night and while she prepared sweet potatoes and ribs, I made a veggie-packed side dish. I know it doesn’t look like much, but we all loved it! I’ll measure everything out the next time I make it so I can share the exact recipe with you, but…
