These are great ingredients and congratulations to Healthy, Delicious for picking them.  Strawberries and basil blows my mind and I've got an intriguing idea percolating.  Just gotta find time during this busy end of the school year season to cook it up and take my crappy photo.....Hopefully this week.

ok guess someone has to be first
This months ingredients were a real challenge but also alot of fun. I choose a dish that could be a dessert or side dish. I have only recently discovered quinoa and how versatile it is. OK on to my dish.

 
Quinoa with Roasted Strawberries and a Basil, Lemon balm Infused Syrup

Simple Syrup

1 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup basil
1/4 cup lemon balm

heat sugar and water over medium heat until sugar is dissolved.

place syrup and herbs in blender and pulse a few times to chop herbs


Quinoa

cook on stove according to package's direction

roast strawberries in oven until soft and juicy.

Nine days to get the entries in.  Are you all like me?  I think about it over and over and over. I could do this or that.
I love all three ingredients. They are so accessible. Now, it's just if I should do "this" or "that." Smiley

This one really has me thinking as it is a great challenge both mentally and creatively!!  Unfortunately it's not really strawberry season here down under and I am looking at frozen berries....or paying top dollar for the last of the season, if you know what I mean.  Shall see what inspires me in the next few days!!  LOL!!

GOOD LUCK everyone.....

So I am guessing Arborio rice is not a whole grain, right? This is hard! Hehe.
