Red Quinoa with Chickpea, Vegan Sausage Sandwich

Happy Independence Day to India today! My wife was beginning work on shooting a documentary film in the late afternoon, then we did some food shopping and came home a bit late, so I put a quick meal together.

At Whole Foods, I picked up a prepared dish of red quinoa with chickpeas. At home, I grilled the cut side of a baquette, along with rings of onions and, for each of us, a vegan Field Roast Grain Meat Company apple-sage artisanal sausage. The sausage and onion went atop the bread and I also had grilled asparagus, which I served along with avocado. It was a good and quick meal.
