"Question. What is quinoa?" LaLa
Only the best thing ever! I asked if her and Mark had plans and I invited them for dinner.
I made the quinoa like I would rice. While that was cooking I chopped and sautéed my shallot w asparagus and thyme (1tsp) Added a little water to let the asparagus steam. Once the quinoa was ready I added everything together. I squeezed lemon and tossed in some feta.
Now...what I would do different... I would have cooked the quinoa in vegetable broth instead of water. Pokey said it tasted bland. Which I guess it did but to me the flavors were light and fresh. It was good. I try to not cook w a lot of salt so I didn't use salt so I told them if they liked salt they could add it.
I roasted eggplant (typical) and had the left over meatless crumbles and mashed black beans.
Dinner was great w great friends.
