Pizza Quiona Casserole

This week I tried this recipe from Peas and Thank You. This is one of those recipes that I am not sure why I decided to try this one. It is not something like we normally eat. Basically the recipe tells you to make some quinoa, mix it with a bunch of stuff, then bake it. After it is baked, you can use this as a pizza base to put topping on. Here is my base:



And I prepared several things for toppings. For Mark and the boys, shredded cheese and hot dogs. For me, daiya, sauteed mushrooms and peppers. I also served it with broccoli. I guess maybe that is why I decided to try this recipe. The boys love the family style!



And here is James, my little angel, getting more broccoli!



Oh, and Andy getting more hot dog. Um, well, ok.



This is how my quinoa pizza turned out:


Speaking of the quinoa, I am not raw, eat raw, or anything, but I have heard some people talk about things like "sprouting" Is this what you mean, but sprouting?


Cause I cooked and assembled everything during naptime, then baked it right before dinner. I may not have put it in the fridge. Us microbiologist don't usually practice what we preach...

At any rate, this was ok, probably wouldn't make it again. And then I remember why we normally don't do family style:


What a mess!
