I love quinoa, and I’m always looking for new recipes, and new ways to use it. This is adapted from a recipe in the Moosewood Restaurant cookbook, an oldie but goodie. This was a great way to use some of my local basil, corn, and bell peppers. Make sure to toast the pine nuts before [...]

If you want to use tuna, add about 1-2 tsp of lime juice to the food processor so they will form patties. This recipe is adapted from The Whole Life Nutrition Kitchen. 3-4 green onions, ends trimmed [...]
