QUINOA TABBOULEH WITH FETA
This quinoa tabbouleh is one of my go-to recipes. Quinoa, a grain that originated in South America, is considered a superfood because it contains more protein than most grains. It has a nutty flavor that tastes wonderful with the cucumbers, tomatoes, scallions, feta and mint, and it's a great gluten-free alternative to traditional bulgur wheat. Best of all, you can make this salad ahead; if it sits at room temperature for a few hours, the lemon vinaigrette really has time to soak into the quinoa and vegetables, so the salad is even more delicious!

Steps:
- Pour 2 cups of water into a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the quinoa and 1 teaspoon of salt, lower the heat and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes, until the grains are tender and open (they'll have little curly tails). Drain, place in a bowl and immediately add the lemon juice, olive oil and 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt.*
- In a large bowl, combine the scallions, mint, parsley, cucumber, tomatoes, 1 to 2 teaspoons of salt* and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Add the quinoa and mix well. Carefully fold in the feta and taste for seasonings. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate and serve cold.
- * Ina uses Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt, which is coarser than other brands; if you are using a finer-grain kosher salt such as Morton, use the smaller amount.

GRILLED QUAIL WITH POMEGRANATE-ORANGE BBQ SAUCE AND TABOULI WITH QUINOA AND SHREDDED KALE
Steps:
- For the tabouli: Place the quinoa in a medium saucepan, cover with 1 3/4 cups cold water and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover, lower the heat and cook until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is tender, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove the lid, fluff with a fork and let cool slightly.
- Put the quinoa in a large bowl; add the tomatoes, mint, kale, cucumbers and onions and mix to combine. Whisk together the olive oil and lemon and orange zests and juices, and season with salt and pepper. Add the dressing to the salad and toss to combine. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. The longer the salad sits the better the flavors become.
- For the pomegranate-orange BBQ sauce: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat; add the onions and cook until soft. Add the pomegranate juice, orange juice, pomegranate molasses, vinegar, sugar, cinnamon sticks and orange zest and cook until reduced by half. Add the ketchup and cook for 15 minutes.
- Remove from the heat, whisk in the mustard, salt and pepper and let cool slightly. Remove the cinnamon sticks before using. Remove about 1 cup of the sauce for serving.
- For the quail: Heat the grill to medium high for direct grilling. Brush the quail with canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Put breast-side down on the grill and cook about 3 minutes. Flip, brush with the barbecue sauce, cover the grill and cook another 3 to 4 minutes.
- Transfer to a platter and serve with the reserved barbecue sauce and the tabouli.

Steps:
- Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a small saucepan. Meanwhile, in a small cast-iron skillet (if possible), toast the quinoa over moderately-high heat until the grains give off a nutty aroma and start to pop. Pour the quinoa into the boiling water, taking care that the pot doesn't boil over! Turn it down to a simmer, cover, and cook until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove it from the heat and allow to cool.
- Whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, 1/2 rounded teaspoon of salt, pepper and nutmeg.
- Combine the parsley, mint, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, peppadews and the cooled cooked quinoa in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Taste for seasoning, and let sit for about 5 minutes before you serve. (This tastes even better the next day!)
- Another way to serve it is with the tabbouleh in the center of a platter encircled with endive or romaine leaves to scoop it up.

TABBOULEH (OR COUSCOUS OR QUINOA) WITH GRILLED VEGETABLES
Grilled vegetables add a layer of rich, complex flavors to the popular Middle Eastern salad of bulgur and herbs. (Option: add 2 cups of chicken) Suggestion: Serve with Flank Steak with Coffee-Peppercorn Marinade... Note: I used the couscous (from a box with seasoning) that was in my pantry instead. (It only needed to be covered for 5 min.) Next, the bulk quinoa I still have. Then I'll get some bulgur. This recipe takes a while and looks long only because there's so much to grill, but it's easy! (Just chop and grill veggies. Repeat. Boil water, add grains, and cover.) I also added yellow bell peppers.

Steps:
- Toast walnuts and set aside.
- Boil water.
- In a large bowl, place bulgur and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Add boiling water and stir.
- Cover with plastic wrap and let soak for about 30 min, or until tender and liquid has been absorbed.
- In a small bowl, mix oil, salt, and pepper.
- If you're using a grill: heat grill to medium-high. Place a fine-mesh non-stick grill topper on grill to heat. Place vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet. Brush both sides with oil mixture. Grind more pepper, if desired. Working in batches, grill until tender, turning once or twice. When veggies are cool to handle, chop coarsely. Cut tomatoes in half.
- If you're using a grill pan: use medium to medium-high heat.
- Have ready an area or plate for the zucchini to cool and a large bowl or plate for the rest of the veggies.
- Brush zucchini with oil mixture and place in a single layer. Grind more pepper, if desired. Grill for 8 to 10 min, turning once or twice. Set a side to cool.
- Chop onions into slices or bite-size pieces.
- Brush and grill onions 8 to 10 min, stirring occasionally. Move onion into large bowl.
- Slice mushrooms into 1/4-inch slabs. (If it's too thin, it'll stick to the pan).
- Brush and grill 6 to 8 min, turning once or twice. Move into bowl.
- Optional: Cut tomatoes in half. (This will make a mess in a pan, so you'll have to clean the pan immediately for an easier clean-up). Brush and grill 2 to 3 minute. If you have tomato halves, move into bowl. If you have whole tomatoes, set aside to cool.
- When bulgur is tender, add remaining 2 tbsp oil, lemon juice, and herbs. Toss to mix.
- Zucchini should be cool enough to handle by now. Coarsely chop and move into bowl.
- Tomatoes may be cool enough to handle. Cut in half. Move into bowl.
- Mix vegetables and add to bulgur.
- Add walnuts to bulgur and mix.
- Serve within 1 hour.

- Rinse the quinoa using a fine mesh strainer, then drain it completely. Place it in a saucepan with 2 cups water and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer where the water is just bubbling for about 17 to 20 minutes, until the water has been completely absorbed. (Check by pulling back the quinoa with a fork to see if water remains.) Turn off the heat and let sit with the lid on to steam for 5 minutes, then fluff the quinoa with a fork.
- To do this quickly, dump the quinoa onto a baking sheet and spread it in an even layer. Pop it in the freezer for 2 to 3 minutes until cooled to room temperature. Or, you can make the quinoa in advance and let it sit at room temp or refrigerate until serving (it cools fastest spread on a baking sheet).
- Finely chop the parsley and mint. Thinly slice the green onions. Finely chop the tomato, removing the core and seeds. Finely chop the cucumber (if you’re using a standard cucumber and not English cucumber, remove the seeds too.)
- Juice the lemon and whisk it together with the olive oil. In a large bowl, toss the quinoa and vegetables with the dressing, kosher salt and pepper. Taste and adjust flavors as necessary. Serve immediately or refrigerate for 3 to 4 days.
