Quinoa Casserole

I could eat quinoa every day. Seriously.

Ever since I discovered quinoa when I was in college, I’ve been unable to get enough of it.  This fact makes it shocking to me that I don’t have more recipes that use quinoa on this blog.  Maybe it's because I gobble it down before it can be photographed, I’m not sure, but this post is here to fill the gap with the tastiest quinoa you’ve ever had, hands down.

Caril de Espinafres (Spinach Curry)

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this, but I have a new addiction. Portuguese cooking shows. Or rather, one particular Portuguese cooking show, Ingrediente Secreto.

Pasta Sauce with Meat, Vegan Style

I never thought I would cook with TVP. There. I said it. I lived in a co-op for an entire year with a bin full of TVP and never touched it once.  After all, what would I do with that spongy tasteless stuff known as Textured Vegetarian Protein or TVP for short?  What would I make with it?  Why would I not just cook with meat?  I got my answer when I entered into a life of post-graduation poverty.  I have not bought meat to cook with since being here.  Instead, I eat meat when I’m out or when someone else cooks it but I never buy it myself because I’m trying to cheaply, and creatively acquire my protein without meat.  But I digress.
