Quinoa...Yes?? No??
The first time I tried quinoa the answer was a resounding "NO!" I didn't like it.
Everyone else did.
So I played around with it until I found recipes I liked. This, being one of my favorites. There is no specific recipe, mostly just assembly. Even better! No measuring!
By all means if you feel inspired to make your own balsamic dressing, please do so. I go that route occasionally but I'm pretty happy with a pre made version. Cater the veggies to your own liking. I just used what I had on hand.
This is great served at room temperature and would be perfect for a Summer BBQ...if Summer ever comes.
