QUINOA AND SHRIMP SALAD
Quinoa, a grain-like food that's super-rich in protein, becomes light and fluffy when cooked, and makes a wonderful substitute for rice in pilafs. It adds heft and texture to salads like this one, but can also stand on its own as a side. If you have some on hand, you could add some capers to the salad, which will add a delightfully tangy flavor; skip the dill and add 2 tablespoons of capers to the recipe instead. Because capers are salty, you should taste the salad first before adding the last 1/4 teaspoon of salt-you may not need it.
