Bacon will make your quinoa taste better
I bet that was a surprise (said sarcastically).
Over the last few weeks I’ve been eating a lot of quinoa. I’ve been buying it, cooking it, putting it into salads and eating it.
Tonight I made a delicious quinoa salad and made it more delicious with two rashers of streaky bacon.

I like that idea. I also like the suggestion of cooking the quinoa in chicken stock.
I’m surprising myself with how much I’m using quinoa 😀
What a great idea! Will have to try this!
So simple, so easy too.
Pure genius!
Next time I’ll dice spam, fry it and add it.
bacon and avocado! I could have guessed you would add that in…yum!
P.S cook your quinoa in chicken stock…so good! 🙂
You know me too well Jen. The stock idea is a good one 🙂
Man that looks good Gary! I like how generously you’ve dressed your salad (sometimes I always do, you need dressing!). And hehe adding bacon to almost anything is a good idea 😛
Thanks Lorraine. A salad needs dressing 😀 I’d probably still eat it without bacon but gee bacon made it a meal to enjoy 🙂
