Just made this for lunch and it was DELICIOUS! Didn’t have fresh basil but i did add some chopped up spinach to the salad for some greenery and it worked really well. Definitely going to make this again! Thanks for the recipe.

Such a great idea!! And I just bought all the ingredients for a caprese sandwich but already got bored with that. Thanks for the recipe!

Oh good catch! It’s 1 – 2 ratio for quinoa! My bad. I’m sorry. :(

Glad you liked the flavors though!

I made this tonight for dinner, it was really good but there were some problems. It ran out of liquid to absorb before it was properly cooked. I had to add a lot more water so it could cook longer. Once that water was gone it was pretty much done (not quite) but I ate it anyway. Why did I need to add so much extra water? Just wondering because I really liked the flavour. Thanks Roni, I love your website by the way and get my breakfast recipes off here every morning!

Hi Roni,

This was great! I didn’t have qunioa but I did have the microwave Succss Rice – Multigrain Medley which is made up of Brown Rice, Wheat, Quinoa, Rye, Barley, Oats. I just heated it in the microwave and added the other ingredients to it. It was fast and great! Thanks for all the recipes. Have a great day!

This looks delish! Got all the ingredients, I am going to give it a shot! Oh, and I grow basil and was always sad when I couldn’t eat it all. I was reading a cookbook the other day and it showed the recipe for pesto and I realized (duh!) I could use my basil for that! Thought I would share since it’s so heartbreaking not to use the delicious and fresh greens.

Dan likes gross box mac and cheese too.

He loves caprese but hates quinoa, maybe I could make this and hopefully he’ll change his mind, lol!

This sounds great . . . and I have fresh basil from my farm share and a ball of fresh mozz. in the fridge (60 cal./ounce, not too bad if you watch it). Good idea!

This looks delish! My lunch today is quinoa with spinach, tomato and feta. I put in a tupperware with spinach on bottom, top with quinoa and feta, warm in micro for a minute. The warm quinoa slightly wilts the spinach and the feta gets creamy and then I stir in chunks of fresh tomato. I also love doing the same with beets and subbing feta for goat cheese. YUM!
