This is the Quinoa that is in my pantry.
In my opinion, this is the most useless and tastless grain know to man! It was purchased for a blackbean tart recipie in one of my Mark Bittman cookbooks (I highly recommend him!). The filling was delicious, the quinoa crust, ICK!
Of course, I am too cheap to throw it away and I figure there MUST be something edible I can do with it, I just haven't found it yet. If anyone has a suggestion, I'd love to hear it!
And, with that, I'm ABCaught up! Yay!

It's a very clever Q, though. I'm totally stuck on mine.
Can you cook it like oatmeal or cream of wheat? I vaguely remember seeing it suggested as a hot cereal.

We found this to be yummy. Hope it helps!
Hi, hi, I found your blog from the With This String group on Rav.
I have the same opinion of quinoa (and my fiance loooves it, weirdo) but these two recipes intrigued me. I haven't tried them yet.
Quinoa clusters (remind me of granola bars)
