QUINOA WITH MUSHROOMS
Quinoa is a healthy grain that can be substituted in most recipes for rice or couscous. I recently experimented with quinoa and made this dish which my husband and I both love. This easy-to-make and tasty side dish is similar to a pilaf.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir the mushrooms, onion, and garlic in the hot oil until browned, about 5 minutes; set aside.
- Melt the butter in a pot over medium-high heat. Add the quinoa to the melted butter and let it brown, about 3 minutes. Pour the chicken broth over the quinoa; bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to low; simmer 10 minutes. Stir in the sauteed mushroom mixture and cook another 2 minutes. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese to serve.

QUINOA WITH WILD MUSHROOMS AND MIXED SQUASHES
Earthy and hearty, this kind of grain and mushroom dish appeals to me most in the fall, though it can be served any time of year.

Steps:
- Combine the quinoa and bouillon cube with 2 cups water in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cover and simmer gently until the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
- Heat the oil in a skillet or stir-fry pan. Add the onion and garlic and sauté over medium heat until translucent.
- Add the wine, if using, the squashes, and mushrooms, and sauté over medium-high heat until the squashes are touched with golden spots.
- Stir in the cooked quinoa, followed by the parsley, oregano, and cumin. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently, for 3 to 5 minutes longer. Season with salt and pepper, then serve at once.
- Salads with a little sweetness provide a nice balance to this dish. Try Mixed Greens with Sprouts, Apple, and Daikon (page 179), Fruitful Red Slaw (page 177), or Spinach and Red Cabbage Salad with Oranges and Almonds (page 180). To boost the protein content of the meal, serve with Garlic and Lemon Beans (page 110).
- You can also complete this meal simply with sautéed vegan sausage links (my favorite, as I've mentioned several times, is Tofurky brand) and a salad of greens and tomatoes.

From dishingouthealth.com
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up. Cut acorn squash in half, lengthwise; scoop out seeds and discard. Rub 1 Tbsp. oil over flesh and season evenly with 1/2 tsp. salt. Place flesh-down on baking sheet. Bake until the squash flesh is easily pierced through by a fork, about 30 to 45 minutes. Leave the oven on.
- Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet (with a fitted lid) over medium-high. Add mushrooms and shallots; cook 6 to 8 minutes, until soft. Add garlic and thyme; cook 2 more minutes. Stir in quinoa and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, to lightly toast grains.
- Stir in broth, milk, remaining 1/4 tsp. salt, and black pepper. Bring mixture to a simmer. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until quinoa absorbs liquid and is fluffy; about 17 to 20 minutes.
- Remove lid and stir in 3 Tbsp. of the cheese. Fill the hollow center of each squash half with quinoa mixture. Sprinkle remaining parmesan cheese overtop. Place back in the oven for 10 to 15 more minutes, until cheese is melted and top is slightly crisp.

- Preheat the oven to 350°. Brush the squash with oil and season with salt and pepper; arrange on a baking sheet cut side down and roast for about 20 minutes, until lightly browned. Flip the wedges and roast for 20 minutes, until just tender.
- In a saucepan, melt the butter with the sugar, maple syrup and thyme. Cook over moderately low heat until the sugar has dissolved, about 3 minutes. Turn the squash skin side down and brush all over with the maple glaze. Roast for 10 minutes longer, until the squash is lightly browned and glazed.
- In a saucepan, whisk the cream with the maple syrup. Add the garlic and thyme and simmer over moderately high heat until reduced to 1/3 cup. Discard the garlic and thyme and keep warm.
- In a medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter. Add the minced shallot and cook over moderate heat until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the bay leaf, thyme and water and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper, then add the quinoa. Cover and cook over moderately low heat until the quinoa is tender and the water has been absorbed, about 15 minutes.
