Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set aside.
- Place the squash in a medium bowl and add 3 tablespoons of the oil, the thyme and 2 teaspoons of salt and season with pepper to taste. Mix until the squash is well coated. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and spread squash out into a single layer. Roast until a paring knife slides into the squash with no resistance, about 30 minutes, stirring about halfway through the cooking time. Put the pistachios on a small baking sheet and toast until fragrant, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, rinse the quinoa in cold water in a fine-mesh strainer. Bring the broth or water to a boil and stir in the quinoa. Simmer, uncovered, until a small white spiral becomes visible in each grain, about 9 minutes. Drain the quinoa and transfer it to a medium bowl. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, the pistachios, cranberries, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the spinach in a large mixing bowl and toss with the hot squash until slightly wilted. Add the quinoa mixture and toss again. Serve warm or at room temperature.

ROASTED SQUASH AND RED ONION GRATIN WITH QUINOA
I have given you several winter squash gratins over the years; this is my favorite to date, because of the sweet layer of flavor of the roasted squash and the texture of the black quinoa.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with parchment or foil. Toss squash with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Spread on baking sheet in an even layer. Place in oven and roast for about 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until tender and caramelized. Remove from the oven and turn the heat down to 350 degrees. You should have about 2 cups roasted squash.
- Meanwhile, heat remaining olive oil in a medium skillet and add onion. Cook, stirring, until it begins to wilt, about 3 minutes. Add leek and a generous pinch of salt and cook, stirring, until onion and leek are tender, another 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and thyme and cook, stirring, until the garlic is fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute. Remove from the heat.
- Oil a 2-quart baking dish or gratin. In a large bowl, beat eggs and add salt and pepper to taste (I use about 1/2 teaspoon salt). Whisk in milk. Add onions and leek mixture, squash, Parmesan and quinoa, and combine well. Scrape into the prepared baking dish.

QUINOA & BUTTERNUT SQUASH GRATIN
This is a delicious, savory vegetarian recipe with butternut squash and cheese. The original recipe called for Gruyere but I used sharp cheddar instead. I think both would work quite well. This was my first time using quinoa in a recipe, and I'm really hooked. The little quinoa spirals are filled with protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals, making it a valuable addition to a vegetarian diet.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400.

- Peel and cube the butternut squash, then put in a microwave safe bowl.
- Microwave on high for 3-5 minutes until squash is soft and tender.

- Remove from heat and let rest.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat in a small frying pan.
- Add shallots and cook 3 minutes.
- Add garlic and cook a minute or two longer, being careful not to let garlic burn.
- Pour over quinoa and squash mixture, mixing thoroughly.
- Add eggs, 3/4 cup of the cheese, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer to prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle remaining cheese and bread crumbs over gratin.
- Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoons of olive oil on top and bake for 35-45 minutes or until top is golden brown.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Oil a 2-quart gratin or baking dish.

- Wipe the pan dry and heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in it over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and stir with the onion until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the spinach and season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.

Scrape into the gratin dish. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the top and drizzle on the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Place in the oven and bake until nicely browned on top, about 25 minutes.

- Warm the oil in a large, nonstick pot over medium-high heat. Once warm, add the rosemary sprig and minced garlic; sauté for around 60 seconds, until the garlic is fragrant. Add the butternut squash to the pot and sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- add the quinoa and vegetable broth to the pan and stir well. Then, sprinkle the chickpeas on top of the quinoa mixture – they won’t become fully submerged in the liquid, but this is ok. Increase the heat to high until everything comes to a boil; then, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 20-23 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and let sit for 5 minutes before opening the pot and fluffing with a fork. Serve as desired; I recommend topping with some Tahini Dressing. Leftovers will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days, or can be frozen and defrosted as needed for up to 2 months.

- Rinse quinoa under cold water. Combine quinoa with 2 cups of water/broth and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let cook for 25 minutes or until liquid is absorbed.
- Blitz your leftover bread in a Cuisinart until a mix of small/medium/large bread crumbs are formed. I do this even when the bread is still somewhat frozen. (You can use fresh bread too)
