Quinoa With Salsa – We Love God!

The oldest and most revered tactic for avoiding the misery of guilt is religion. This tactic may be the most deceptive because it comes closest to the truth. It recognizes what the intellectual and physical strategies generally ignore: that the ultimate cause of guilt is that there is a righteous God whose will for his creatures is ignored or defied. It recognizes that under every pang of conscience in the human soul there is the silent, often unexpressed conviction, 'I have gone against God.' The means that religion has developed to deal with this guilt is to try to placate or appease God with good works or religious ritual. Religious people know they owe God a great debt for their disobedience. But they often make the terrible mistake of thinking they can pay it back through good works and the performance of religious duties.

INGREDIENTS

1	c	Quinoa
2	c	Water
1	lb	Jar salsa, I used Muir Glen
		With Black Beans and Corn
		"medium"
10	oz	Package of frozen corn
		kernels

INSTRUCTIONS

Rinse the quinoa, put in a small saucepan with 2 cups water. When it
boils, stir it well, reduce heat to simmer, cook for 12 to 15 minutes
until quinoa is translucent. The hard part: open the jar of salsa.  Add
as much of it to the quinoa as you like. I used about 3/4ths of  the
jar. Put the frozen corn in a colander and briefly run hot water  over
it to separate and slightly warm up the kernels. Add to the  quinoa and
stir.  This was a great hot-weather dish which I served at room
temperature.  The flavor is basically determined by the salsa that you
use.  Posted to fatfree digest by Muriel Kranowski <[email protected]> on
