Noel, OT but do you watch Orphan Black?
When we go there, I'd like to hear your suggestions for prepping Quinoa.
I'd like to know, too. Let's go there
Sydney and Noel, I'm just now seeing your posts. I, too, make a lot of cold and hot salads with quinoa, similar to what Irshgrl already posted. I usually add lemon or lime, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, salt and pepper. Veggies that I add are usually whatever I happen to have, and have included some of the following: spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, red onion, zucchini, peas, asparagus, etc. Chickpeas, too. Also, I usually add basil or cilantro or sometimes cumin. Sometimes I'll just cook quinoa in a vegetable broth. I've been wanting to try adding feta, but haven't yet. It does sound really good.
Another way I sometimes eat quinoa is for breakfast - I add almond milk and ceylon cinnamon, and sometimes walnuts. I like it. :-)

I love kale- one of my top green vegetables. However- it has to be fresh. I don't like it prepackaged in the bags or frozen. One vegetarian tv cook showed me the secret. Only use the leaves. I remove the stems and only use the leafy part. I stirfry it with onions, mushrooms, grilled tofu and sometimes potatoes.

There was a buffet-style restaurant near where I work that always had Kale. I would always take some, because I figured it had vitamins, but never developed a taste for it. But, I see it can be "doctored up" with some nice ingredients, so I think I'll try making it at home.

It might be a regional thing, but Kale has been sold in grocery stores here for decades. They used to sell it loose, in a big bin. I've noticed recently, you either have to buy it in a bag, or small bunches. No one sells it loose anymore.
You don't know where to shop.

I've heard that it's bitter. Haven't tried it, and wouldn't know what it is if I saw it, lol.........I'm not a fan of veggies anyway......
