Quinoa Stuffed Avocados and Roasted Cauliflower

Made this for dinner last night and it was  delicious and pretty nutritious if you ask me!

Quinoa Stuffed Avacados

Need
-4 large Haas avacados.
-can corn
-can black beans
-1 package taco seasoning mix
-1 tsp apple cider vinegar.
-1/4 cup chopped cilantro.
-red pepper chopped(optional)
-1/2 red onion chopped.
-1-1/2 cups cooked quinoa

Cook quinoa according to package. I use veggie stock instead of water to give the quinoa more flavor.

Mix corn, black beans, taco seasoning, apple cider vinegar, cilantro, red onion and red pepper.
Add cooked quinoa little by little and mix thoroughly with taco seasoning mixture. Depending on the quinoa you use, you might have some left over which you can eat by itself or use for another recipe later.

Cut avocados in half and peel off skin. I took out some of the filling to give more room for quinoa mixture.  Place avocados on a baking sheet lined with foil and sprayed with cooking oil.  Spoon mixture into avocados- again you may have extra mixture!

Cook for about 15 minutes at 350. If you wish you can top with cheese after 15 minutes and bake again  until cheese is melted.



Roasted Cauliflower

I have become addicted to this. SO easy and SOOOOOO good.

Need:
-1 large head of cauliflower
-1/2 cup olive oil
-juice from 1 lemon
-1 tablespoon of minced garlic(I use almost double of this because Holland and I are garlic freaks!)
-salt and pepper to taste
-parmesan cheese.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Chop up cauliflower into florets. I like to make them bite size.  Line baking pan with foil, put cauliflower in and drizzle with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and salt and pepper. Toss cauliflower with hands to make sure everything is evenly coated. Bake at 450 for 20-25 minutes. Take out and top with parmesan cheese and bake for 2-3 more minutes.

Hope y'all enjoy these! Let me know what you think!
