My passions - things that grow pretty or yummy, cooking things I grow with a pinch of sugar and spice and my love of photos and journals. Not least of all my family - like Kumquats mainly sweet but can be "tart" and so often pixelated. Always, always with humor and love.

Pork Medallion with Ancient Grain Salad
We have been trying to eat less white rice, particularly at night. Lots of salad topped with grilled steak, shrimp or tofu. Lately, I have been cooking lots of couscous and quinoa. I bought a bag labelled as Quinoa Ancient Blend. Essentially, is a blend of quinoa, amaranth and millet. Cooked it the same way as quinoa. 1- 1 1/2 cup of liquid to 1 cup of quinoa. Today, I used the Green Chili Adobo and Roasted Garlic marinade I have in the fridge, to flavour the quinoa salad. The quinoa blend was nuttier than plain quinoa. Somewhat more filling.
