    I wanted to prepare one Mexican combo for this week’s theme. That’s when I got this recipe from my colleague – Quinoa and spinach burrito. The recipe was super simple and very healthy so I thought of trying it right away for the International combo. And you know what prepared a huge batch of my slow cooker rajma so thought using the rajma gravy instead of boiled/canned beans. To my surprise Spinach and quinoa cooked with a hint of oregano and combined with rajma was really great. My sous chef, Mr. Vaandu approved it ate one whole burrito without any complaints and made feel proud. (Touch-wood)

    QuinoaBurrito

    What I did for this recipe was,

    • Cook the quinoa.
    • Heat the skillet and sauté the onions and spinach with little oil and oregano.
    • Now loads these in the warm tortillas. I had guacamole with me so I added one layer of this quinoa spinach mixture, rajma, guacamole and cheese and rolled it up. That’s it.
