QUINOA STIR FRY WITH SPINACH & WALNUTS
Found this in Prevention Magazine, this is easy, healthy and most importantly...very tasty. You can substitute any cheese for the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. I recommend a strong hard cheese, but I have used all kinds and they all work. When I'm in a rush, I leave out the walnut pieces. A great side dish or when I am really lazy, add some cooked chicken for a great meal.

PINEAPPLE-CASHEW-QUINOA STIR-FRY
A recipe from Veganomicon: The Ultimate Vegan Cookbook. They suggest making the quinoa aspect a day or two in advance, store it in the fridge, and you'll be able to put this stir-fry in a snap for an easy weeknight dinner. For a truly gorgeous dish, use a half and half blend of the white quinoa and the heirloom variety Red Inca. Have ALL of your ingredients chopped before starting the stir-fry aspect. You may substitute frozen peas for the edamame. Posted for ZWT4.

Steps:
- PREPARE THE QUINOA FIRST: Combine the quinoa, juice, water, and soy sauce in a medium-sized pot.
- Cover, place over high heat,and bring to a boil.
- Stir a few times, lower the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 12 to 14 minutes, until all the liquid has been absorbed and the quinoa appears plumped and slightly translucent.
- Uncover, fluff, and let cool.
- For best results,place the quinoa in an airtight container and refrigerate overnight.
- If you're in a hurry, chill the covered quinoa for at least an hour.
- When ready to use, break up any chunks of the cold quinoa with a fork.
- PREPARE THE STIR-FRY; Use the largest nonstick skillet you have (at least 11 inches in diameter) or a wok.
- Have ALL of your ingredients chopped and easily within reach.
- Place the cashews in the dry pan and heat over low heat, stirring them, until lightly toasted, about 4 minutes.
- Remove the cashews from the pan, raise the heat to medium, and add the peanut oil, scallions, and garlic.
- When the garlic starts to sizzle, add the sliced chile pepper and ginger.
- Stir-fry for about 2 minutes, then add the red bell pepper and edamame.
- Stir-fry for about 3 minutes, until the bell pepper is softened and edamame is bright green.
- Add the basil and mint, and stir for another minute before adding the pineapple and quinoa.
- In a measuring cup, combine the soy sauce, vegetable stock, and mirin.
- Pour over the quinoa mixture.
- Stir to incorporate completely and coat the quinoa.
- Continue to stir-fry for 10 to 14 minutes, until the quinoa is very hot (it helps to use two spoons/ spatulas to scoop the quinoa around).
- Serve with lime wedges and additional soy sauce, to season individual servings to taste.

QUINOA STIR-FRY WITH VEGETABLES AND CHICKEN
This speedy, savory meal pairs well with a workout. Quinoa is an unexpected source of energizing iron and amino acids, protein's building blocks, to nourish newly toned muscles. Body bonus: Potassium in the grain can help beat bloat.
