Light Chicken Asparagus Quinoa Bake is healthful and flavorful-dinner made with bacon, leeks and sharp white cheddar-cheese. This Chicken Asparagus Casserole is a simple recipe the entire family will love it!
Light Chicken Asparagus Quinoa Bake is full of bacon, leeks, extra-sharp white-cheddar and asparagus to get a taste packed dinner that’s so great. You won’t think it’s lightened up! Along with each of the yummy ingredients, it’s packed with lean-chicken as well as the protein packaged super foods, quinoa.
With a homemade-sauce, you have a hearty meal deep on nutrients . Similar to my other quinoa recipes such as Vegan Ginger Quinoa Bowl and Delicious Lentil Quinoa Bowl, there aren’t any cans of processed cream sauces in this recipe.
Makes a fantastic make-ahead dinner. Mix it up, throw it in the fridge the night before and you’ll be able to throw it in the oven when you get home from work the following day. You’ll have dinner on-the table in under an hour & much more hours to spend with your whole family.
This is simple meal-prep recipes really are my favorite. If I will prep something the evening before or at the day while they’re sleeping it makes all our lives easier.
Another reason why I really like this Chicken Asparagus Casserole? is you could get creative and switch the recipe up by simply swapping out a couple of ingredients.
Quinoa bakes really are a healthy and delicious alternative for a casseroles, but offer the identical comforting meal. This Greek Quinoa Bowls and Burrito Bowls with Grilled Chicken are equally great takes.
