Grilled Salmon on Quinoa and Brown Rice, topped with Artichoke Hearts and Basil Pesto

Grilled Salmon on Quinoa and Brown Rice, topped with Artichoke Hearts and Basil Pesto 



Just moved, don't have my kitchen put together, but I miss home cooking. Got some pre-made stuff and threw together for tonight's quick dinner!

As usual, ingredients from FreshAndEasy:

Salmon
Pre-cooked quinoa and brown rice, microwave in the bag
Basil pesto
Marinated artichoke hearts

Grill salmon on Foreman Grill until cooked; set aside.

In a sauce pan, combine pesto and artichoke hearts - no liquid. Another way is to use the blender to chop and mix the artichoke hearts with the pesto.  Heat on low.

Microwave quinoa and brown rice for 90 seconds, per instructions on package.

In a bowl, layer the rice, grilled salmon, and top with pesto sauce.  Sprinkle Parmesan, if desired. 




Enjoy!
