Freezer Dinner – Quinoa Bowl

I love this bowl so much for many reasons. It has great color. It’s the taste of fall. And it comes together in a flash from stuff prepped in the freezer. We’ve saved so many calories with the lightened up pesto, the broccoli in the meatballs, and the beet rice replacing ½ the quinoa.
