My family loves to entertain. I think both my mom and my dad make a great team when cooking. They always seem to create healthy, delicious, and interesting dishes. Here was our last BBQ menu:
Home grown tomatoes with fresh mozzarella and basil.

We mixed red quinoa (more fiber) and regular quinoa together then added avocado, tomatoes, fresh corn, cilantro, and black beans. This quinoa salad has a mexican feel to it! Check out another Quinoa veggy Salad here!
