Easy Chicken Quinoa Salad
You didn't know quinoa could do this, did you? I have to tell you something. I absolutely LOVE shredding a rotisserie chicken. I love it. I don't know what it is. The pulling away of the slippery skin? The effortless removal of bones and tendons? And no I'm not a serial killer, thanks. It's just all so therapeutic and calming for my brain. I'm not a psychopath either. Actually the verdict is still out on that one. SO, ANYWAY. Hello. Guess... Read More ›

Quinoa Quiche
I'm gonna give it to you straight, this Quinoa Quiche is bad to the BONE. Like, slap me silly and call me Willy, good. Like, spread your wings and FLY, little bird, good. Like, call your broker, good. It's dang good. It's interesting though because this quiche is more dense (denser? more dense?) than your run of the mill eggy bake concoction. It's load-ED with red quinoa, mushrooms, red bell pepper and baby spinach. AKA: incredible hulk fo... Read More ›

Veggie Quinoa Salad
When you see the word “rice,” you know what it is and how to say it. Same for “couscous,” “barley” and “spaghetti.” But quinoa? Not so much. Frankly, if you are asking yourself how it’s pronounced, then you aren’t alone. (It’s pronounced "keen-wa," for the record.) Quinoa is a protein-rich seed that has a similar look to couscous: The texture is creamy, but has a slight crunch too. Though it’s often referred to a... Read More ›

Vegan Quinoa and Black Beans
I admit when a recipe has the word “vegan” in it, I usually run in the other direction. I consider myself a meat lovin’ girl and married a man who doesn’t consider it a meal unless some type of meat is present. Recently, we had a dinner guest who was vegan and I thought, “What in the world am I going to feed her?” But as it turns out, our worlds are really not that far apart. Quinoa was the answer. I’ve been dying to make a qu... Read More ›
