Quinoa Pilaf 2 Tablespoons olive oil 1/2 onion, chopped or 1 shallot, finely chopped 2 cups quinoa 4 cups chicken broth 1 teaspoon parsley flakes In large fry pan with a lid, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and quinoa. Saute until the quinoa starts to brown and the onion becomes clear. Add chicken broth and parsley flakes and bring to a slight boil. Cover and reduce heat. Cook for 12 minutes, covered, until liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork, recover and allow to steam for another 10 – 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and serve. This recipe is from Goodcheapeats.com a great resource for once a month freezer cooking and menu planning Mondays. Also, I added chopped carrots to the recipe when sauteeing the onion and quinoa just to add a little color to the dish and to get some veggies in. Recipe from: www.goodcheapeats.com
I think those roses are gorgeous. Are they fragrant? I would rather have one good rose bush with big fragrant flowers than the four small pink roses in my backyard with no smell. :(( I'm thinking of digging them out. Very pretty Ats!
ReplyDeleteNo scent but they keep blooming all year. The Jackson & Perkins roses I bought at end of season a couple of years ago was very fragrant!
ReplyDeleteyour knockout roses are beautiful!! i love them
ReplyDeletei don't care about it not being fragrant - if it's pretty i'd keep it. i like those pink roses in your backyard, joy - you should keep them. it makes it look colorful back there.
ReplyDeleteI like them too - very pretty and they were blooming like crazy! Do you put fertilizer on them? What do you use?
