I love to make quinoa bowls by using a base of quinoa, and experimenting with all kinds of toppings. One of my go to toppings is feta cheese and my favorite dressing is Annie's Asian Sesame. In this recipe, I added sautéed mushrooms, caramelized almonds and black beans to give it some sweetness but also protein.

ingredients ~
1/8 cup slivered almonds
2 Tbsp. brown sugar
2 cremini mushrooms, sliced
1 Tbsp. butter
1/2 cup cooked tri-color quinoa
