Yummy Quinoa


Seriously, this is one of the yummiest recipes I've tried.  It tastes like delicious fresh salsa.  I served it with hot homemade braided bread, and it's a fabulous meal. I bet it's yummy cold, too, as leftovers.  Yum!

Yummy Quinoa
1 tsp olive oil
1 red onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 c uncooked quinoa
1 1/2 c broth (I use chicken broth)
1 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
salt and pepper

Heat oil in saucepan. Stir in onion and garlic. Mix in quinoa and cover with broth. Add spices. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, simmer 20 mins.

1 cup frozen sweet corn
2 roma tomatoes, diced
1 T lime juice
2 cans black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 c cliantro, chopped

Stir in corn, simmer 5 more minutes. Add rest of the ingredients. Sprinkle with feta

This is the day the men are on their own. I propose the men make Paninis again (if we do quesadillas for lunch on this day and then have the men make Pakistani's (spell check suggested it) for dinner then we could do them for lunch on Thursday. I think this will give us a little variety so we are not eating sandwiches 2x in one day or Mexican food 2x in one day.)
