Creamy Quinoa Mousse Recipes

Steps:

• Rinse quinoa twice and drain well.
• Pour chicken broth into a saucepan; bring to a boil.
• Melt butter in a separate saucepan over medium-high heat; saute onion and garlic until onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Stir quinoa into onion mixture; cook, stirring frequently, until quinoa is toasted and coated in oil, about 3 minutes.
• Slowly pour wine over quinoa mixture; cook and stir until wine is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Ladle 1/2 cup chicken broth over quinoa mixture; cook, stirring frequently, until absorbed, 3 to 5 minutes. Continue ladling broth, 1/2 cup at a time, over quinoa mixture; cook, stirring frequently, until quinoa is tender and has burst, about 20 minutes. You may not use all the chicken broth.
• Mix Parmesan cheese and cream into quinoa mixture; season with marjoram, thyme, salt, and pepper. Add a splash of chicken broth to make quinoa more creamy, if desired.

Steps:

• Bring the beef broth, water, and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and cook 5 minutes. Stir in the green onions, mushrooms, green beans, and tarragon; continue cooking until the green beans are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the evaporated milk, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Simmer 2 more minutes until heated through.

Steps:

• Start by cooking the quinoa. Rinse it with water and drain, then add 2 cups water and a sprinkle of sea salt to the water. Bring this to a boil, then turn down to simmer for 20-30 minutes. When you see the swirl of the grains, with a translucent center, the quinoa is fully cooked. It should be fluffy if you don't stir the quinoa while it cooks.
• Make the sauce while the quinoa is cooking by putting the rest of the ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend the zucchini with enough coconut milk and/or water to get it smooth. Add the garlic and onion in stages to make sure the sauce stays smooth.
• Serve the cooked quinoa topped with the sauce alone, or add some chopped vegetables, steamed or raw.

Steps:

• Rinse quinoa thoroughly; drain.
• Heat quinoa and broth to boiling in 2-quart saucepan; reduce heat.
• Cover and simmer 10 to 15 minutes or until all broth is absorbed.
• Stir in cream cheese and basil; cover and remove from heat.
• Melt butter in 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Cook garlic in butter about 30 seconds, stirring frequently, until golden.
• Stir in vegetables; cook about 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until vegetables are crisp-tender.
• Toss vegetables and quinoa mixture together.
• Top with Romano cheese.
