Recipe from: Weeknight Dinners. This is one of four recipes from a weekly menu that are assembled from ingredients that are prepped ahead of time (rice and quinoa). The three other dishes on the menu include a sesame crusted tuna with a chilled noodle salad, crispy eggs with sautéed veggies over rice, and an ultra chopped quinoa and cabbage salad. Rice and tuna are used twice and vegetables are repurposed to reduce food waste. Some last-minute additions like lemon tahini dressing and fresh herbs lend variety and keep things fresh.
