INGREDIENTS

1/2 c Quinoa, soaked in water
1 c Cold water
Salt
1/2 Bottle fat-free Italian
dressing
2 T Poblano-pesto sauce
Salt
1 t Honey or sugar
2 Chile de arbol – dried
toasted & crumbled
2 Mushrooms, sliced
1 Scallion, chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

To cook quinoa: In a small nonstick saucepan, put quinoa, water and
salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook 15-20 minutes. Set aside.
To make dressing: In blender, put all dressing ingredients and blend
on HIGH until smooth.  To assemble: In a medium bowl, combine cooked
quinoa, mushrooms and  scallions. Sprinkle crumbled chile de arbol over
ingredients. Pour 2  tbsp dressing over. Refrigerate until slightly
cool. Serve on bed of  mixed lettuces (mesclun mix) and some iced tea.
Risa's notes: You must soak quinoa for a few moments in cool water
before cooking to get rid of an enzyme that is in quinoa. After that,
drain well and then cook.  Add a different chile if you wish, or some
chile powder (one specific  chile is better than a supermarket blend).
