PORK FRIED QUINOA

These tiny quinoa seeds really are sponges for flavor. I was really surprised how decadent and satisfying this seemed, and with only a tablespoon of vegetable oil and a handful of very lean smoked ham.

QUINOA WITH FRIED ONIONS AND CHESTNUTS

We got this from levanacooks.com,she says: "I love quinoa, on Passover and year-round. A staple in South America, it's a nutritional powerhouse, and delicious too, and so versatile! Quinoa comes in white, red and black, as I did here, so mix and match and get fun results each time. Please do not skip the step where you are told to rinse the quinoa in cold water: It rids it of the saponin that has been sprayed on it to keep the insects away away: What do you know, they love quinoa, as do we! I find that quinoa works best when the cooking water we start with is cold" - See more at: http://www.levanacooks.com/quinoa-with-fried-onions-and-chestnuts-recipe/#sthash.pSZoiFFU.ZsdqaMoU.dpuf
