Thanks Greeneyes - just the sort of thing I have been failing to find! Gonna really get into quinoa now that I have cooked it properly and know how yummy it is. Still going to be a while before I can get into it with raw garlic for breakfast though........

For those of you that are not opposed to eating cheese I made a really good dish the other night. I had leftover quinoa. I sauteed kale and shallots in some oil with garlic and seasoned with a little salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. I put the quinoa in a baking dish, put the kale on top and then made a simple cheese sauce with extra sharp cheddar and poured on top. Baked in a 350 oven until browned on the top. Really, really good!!!

Hey, I like raw garlic with my quinoa in the morning and if anyone doesn't like tough titty.
(Maybe that's why nobody comes into my office??)

I have been away from the boards for what feels like a long time, since December and here you are still talking about garlic for breakfast with your quinoa. Feels just like I have never been gone. Love your spirit.

Time for me to get back to my former Quinoa routine. Managed to kick the habit along the highways and byways of my chaotic life of late. Things have calmed down some, so hope to be reading here a lot this month,try out some Q dishes,catch up with all you Quinoa Queens. Bet there are some juicy recipes and success stories here since I last called by!
Have missed you all!

This is funny and quite ironic, but my wife and I keep a couple of parrots, and get "Birdtalk" magazine. The last issue had an article about how quinqa is a miracle food for parrots, complete with parrot quinoa recipes. I can provide some, if anyone's interested.

OK Lushy ... On Monday I intend to buy a whole fresh fish and stuff it with a mixture of giant couscous, dried cherries, fresh mint leaves, olive oil, a vanilla bean, lemon juice, rosemary and sea salt, - wrap in foil and bake for 20 mins.

I shall report back.

Good Morning Quinoa Queens and Quinoa Virgins!

Thought I would bump this today as I get ready to eat some quinoa flakes with prunes and blueberries and orange blossom and rose water. Plus the usual array of mixed seeds and nuts.

If you haven't given Quinoa a go yet, I hope reading My Own Woman's fab thread will encourage you to do so. There are also great recipes in the recipe section of the site.

Oh and Tawny -are you still with us? Or did you just expire from the sheer delights of that amazing sounding fish 'n quinoa dish? Do tell us how it tasted!


have a great foodie weekend ye all

Try mixing cooked quinoa with some parmesan cheese. Slice zucchini in half and scoop out the seeds. Stuff them with the quinoa and bake. Absolutely delicious and you get twice the vegetable for the starch!
