Quinoa Craziness!

Mandi July 21, 2008 2

Quinoa-licious As a vegan, there are plenty of reasons to love quinoa (all together now: ‘KEEN-wah’). It is a complete protein. It is a good source of dietary fiber and phosphorus and is high in magnesium and iron . It is gluten free and considered easy to digest. It is fun to say.

There seems to be about 8,375,835 quinoa recipes for every reason it is fabulous. This weekend I made Chickpea-Quinoa Pilaf, found in the holy grail of veg cookbooks:Veganomicon. It was nummy.

Other quinoa recipes:

Quinoa Carrot Zucchini Casserole

Quinoa Vegetable Paella

Quinoa Balls with Puttanesca Sauce

Quinoa Stuffed Peppers

Walnut Rosemary Quinoa

Portobellas Stuffed w/ Lemon Scented Quinoa and Arugula

Kale-Eggplantalicious Quinoa Loaf

Warmand Nutty Cinnamon Quinoa – I couldn’t pass this one up because I almost ate the photo. Make sure to replace the milk in the recipe with soy or rice milk!

Enjoy Quinoa-fest 2008!

    Last night I made the Quinoa Stuffed Peppers. Yummy!!!!!!!!!!
    I did a few things differently such as cutting the peppers long wise and stuffing them. I used 1/2 the cinnamon and cumin because I didn’t want those strong flavors to overwhelm the dish. It was perfect. I baked them for 40 minutes only and they were perfect not under or over cooked. I even cooked a little ground beef for my carnivore husband and father and added the mixture. They like it but liked it just as well without the meat. Next time everyone will eat it meat free. I got many complements about this dish. A keeper for sure!!!! Thanks ChicVegan for all the recipes. Keep them coming!
