I'm glad it went over well! We love it, and it's so darn healthy. Kevin Lynch's blog...

Thank you! I am SO making this soon!

 

[richard-in-cincy]

Me too! Thanks for posting again. I missed the first post.

It's nothing flashy, but it has a wonderful taste. I keep the ingredients on hand now.

I love this Forum and you guys. You make cooking so much fun.

Michael, question on the quinoa. Is it one cup of cooked quinoa or 1 cup of dry quinoa, cooked?

 

[michael-in-phoenix]

One cup cooked.

 

[deb-in-mi]

Not sure I can get quinoa where I live

can you recommend a substitute?

So that's why I bought those red lentils!! I was trying to remember! Thanks! smileys/smile.gif

You made me laugh, that's the story of my life!

 

[melissa-dallas]

Maybe couscous? The texture would be different though.

Deb, would you have a health food store nearby? They often have quinoa, sometimes

in bulk bins. Or, if they don't carry it, perhaps they could suggest a source for you.

 

[pat-nocal]

Ditto. Recently, I've gotten to where I'll come home with the jar of whatever and tape a post-it

note to the lid with the intended purpose and/or name of recipe I was thinking of using the item for. Works great. I tell myself I'm being kind to my memory. smileys/smile.gif

Deb, check your PM's.
