Grilled Steak and Quinoa Tabouleh with Arugula Microgreens
In the summer, when I have guests over, I love setting out dishes in the middle of the table and letting my guests help themselves. I think it’s so fun and festive! This grilled steak and quinoa tabbouleh recipe is perfect for your summer dinners. It’s simple, fresh, and easy to make.
I recently discovered GoodLeaf Farms’ arugula microgreens and absolutely fell in love with them. I love how versatile and nutritious they are and the burst of flavor they add to recipes.
