I recently saw a cook book with some 200 hundred recipes for quinoa! I am going to buy it soon, but from what I figured out by skimmed through, it looked like a combination of white red and black quinoa would go with absolutely anything you could imagine: be it salads, side dishes or main dishes , with fried and grilled meat, chicken and fish. All I want to say is that quinoa is good for your health. It is pretty and it knows no limit! I already posted the most basic type here. And what I am about to share is something I learned from my sister, tried successfully and served as a side dish with grilled salmon. The combination was just wonderful.
Ingredients: (for a medium size bowl, serving 3-4 as side dish) white quinoa, 1 cup. Red quinoa 1/3 cup. Water, 2 and 2/3. Zucchini, 2 medium size, halved lengthwise into three each. Garlic 1 clove, crushed. Olive oil, 1 tbsp. Lime juice 1tbsp. Freshly chopped parsley,1 tbsp. Salt to taste.
