#peanutsause

The day after cooking my mom’s dinner, I felt inspired to cook more. So jumped on Pinterest and found a really yummy, light lunch type meal. Being a vegetarian, I’ve found out about a lot of different protein filled grains, and quinoa is one of them so this recipe,

Mushroom and Quinoa filled Lettuce Wraps

looked wonderful.  Since I didn’t have lettuce in the house that day I used a pepper instead, and baked that alone in the oven while I was preparing the rest of the meal so it’d get nice and soft.  I also substituted a normal yellow onion for the scallions and instead of cucumber I substituted chopped up carrots. It turned out great, and I was sufficiently full all day. I believe for dinner that night I had cereal because the quinoa was that filling.

This was also fast and easy and a great way to have a filling meal in the middle of the day.
