  1. This is a wonderful way to have quinoa! It goes so well with avocado, don't know why I never tried that combination before. I had no lettuce leaves but other than that followed the reicpe to the letter and will sure make it again! Thanks for sharing :)<br/>Made for P-A-R-T-Y game December 2011.
