Quinoa Pasta with Avocado Dressing

Quinoa pasta, not something I thought I would be into. In full transparency my body does not do well with normal quinoa so I was skeptical but willing to give it a try; especially with avocado dressing.🤣

There is an abundance of substitution possibilities. I added black beans for more fiber and protein. I also used Vegan yogurt instead of Greek yogurt.

The original recipe can be found here: Mind Over Munch.

Ingredients:

• Quinoa pasta-I used Ancient Harvest
• 3/4 cup Vegan yogurt- I used Whole Soy Co
• 1 can black beans-strained and rinsed
• 1 large avocado-mashed
• 1 cup celery-chopped
• 1 cup blueberries
• 1 tbsp dijion mustard
• Black pepper

Instructions:

Step 1- cook pasta per instructions, usually 10 minutes in boiling water.

Step 2- strain and rinse black beans.

Step 3- mash avocado in large mixing bowl.

Step 4- add tyogurt and mustard to the avocado and mix well.

Step 5- combine the following ingredients in the mixing bowl:

• black beans
• celery
• blueberries
• black pepper to taste

Step 6- once fully cooked, strain and rinse the pasta with cool water.

Step 7- add pasta to the avocado mixture.
