I still have some leftover Pesto Sauce on fridge. So i decided to make a Risotto from Quinoa with Pesto Sauce as the base ingredients. I love how it turns out, very creamy and well blended into the Quinoa. I forget to sprinkle some toasted Pine Nuts. Later i add a chopped Brazilian Nuts, but not in this picture, it give a crunchy texture.
I love Italian Food, like Lasagna, Pizza, Aglo Olio, Tiramisu, etc. My preferences of cuisine, are quite wide range from Japanese, Indonesian, Western, Korean, Thai Food, into Indian Food, Mexican Food and so on. To be honest, i am trying to be healthy as much as i can, but sometimes i can hold myself to indulge those Guilty Pleasure Food that not counted as a Raw Food or Plants Based Whole Food, which mean i cross the border and i still do love some Baked Salmon or French Fries. Well i am not a Buddhist Vegetarian that strictly not eat any meat, and avoid Garlic, Honey, Egg, or Dairy Product (Milk, Yogurt, Cheese). Because i am still allow myself to eat farm egg, even though i can replace with Flax Egg. But you know, the taste are so different and i am just being healthier eating lifestyle. Please do not be mistaken if i was against the law of Vegan. Peace !!
