I have Celiac’s Disease – okay it’s not as gross as it may sound. I basically have an allergy to foods with gluten (i.e. bread, cakes, pasta, anything with flour). Sorry not very scientific.
I miss pasta—really miss pasta. So last night I make Quinoa Pasta. Quinoa is a “supergrain” – tons of protein and complete array of amino acids (perfect for vegetarians). I bought the quinoa shells for Whole Foods. The pasta tastes like regular pasta (well a bit more nutty) – super healthy & super fabulous!!!
While I boiled the pasta I whizzed up a spicy sauce with cremini mushrooms. I sautéed in a skillet with some olive oil -- half a red onion, garlic (tons), cremini mushrooms and of course chili pepper (enough to burn). Added a good quality pre-made spaghetti sauce (gluten free of course)… added chopped spinach….sprinkled in some mozzarella… added my quinoa pasta and VOILA gluten free vegetarian pasta. Oh sooooooo goooooood.
Currently stuffing my face.

I've been eating Quinoa straight up. It's interesting. I prefer couscous, but it's not a bad substitute.
