Quinoa & Vegetable Saute

From Clean Eating Summer 2008. Doesn't look like they post recipes online.



Ingredients:
quinoa
water (used chicken stock)
canola oil
red onion
bell pepper (left out)
green cabbage
herbes de Provence
salt
peas
tofu

Adam mentioned quinoa a while back as some kind of miracle food that is a great nutritional staple and we should eat it every day. So I finally got around to finding a recipe to make with it. Adam determined they look like baby fish eyes. How appetizing. The taste is not extraordinary, but I suppose that's not really the point. This recipe as a whole was ok. I think I'd cut the tofu into smaller chunks next time as it seemed to kind of take over the whole dish. Also, the picture in the magazine? Doesn't look like they even cooked it. Kind of misleading.
