QUINOA WITH MUSHROOMS



Quinoa with Mushrooms image

Quinoa is a healthy grain that can be substituted in most recipes for rice or couscous. I recently experimented with quinoa and made this dish which my husband and I both love. This easy-to-make and tasty side dish is similar to a pilaf.

CHICKPEA, QUINOA AND CELERY SALAD WITH MIDDLE EASTERN FLAVORS



Chickpea, Quinoa and Celery Salad With Middle Eastern Flavors image

It's the sumac (available in Middle Eastern markets) and the herbs - dill, mint, chives - that give this salad its Middle Eastern accents. I love the texture and flavor of the chickpeas, which make for a substantial and comforting dish. It's all you need for lunch and makes a delicious light supper. I love abundant, thinly sliced celery in just about any lemony salad; you will appreciate it for its texture as well as its flavor. Of course, you can use canned chickpeas, but if you have the time, try cooking some dried chickpeas to see how good they taste.

QUINOA WITH CELERY AND MUSHROOMS



Quinoa with Celery and Mushrooms image

I can just hear someone shouting "Oh, no, not quinoa again," but this is really good. I made it for friends who cannot eat onions or garlic. Looking around for a solution, I found that the freezer had two plastic containers of _Boletus_ mushrooms that I had picked, cooked, and frozen in the summer. If-as is probable-fresh _Boletus_ are not available, use another good mushroom. Even if you don't forage as I do, you will find an expanding selection of flavorful mushrooms in shops-labeled "wild" only to differentiate them from regular mushrooms. They need not be frozen. In fact, they will need to be defrosted if frozen. Don't worry if this makes more than you need. My friends took home the remains, and so will yours.
