Quinoa Hash

Ahhh! Quinoa. One of the ancient grains. Loads of fiber and a nice source of protein. Quinoa Hash is a bed of quinoa with a layer of home style potato fries. The kids said the fries turned out more like chunky mashed potatoes. Those layers are topped with sauteed veggies, zucchini, red pepper, onion and corn. Like to say we had something rich in green color too but I was crab-a-saurus by the time dinner was on the table. We've had this meal many times before. It is usually met with more enthusiastic reviews. Tonight however was hit and miss. Some hitting...learning new culinary skills. The little one used his spoon as a trebuchet. This amused him endlessly. Rich and green were quickly forgotten while I dodged his sailing food. I've used Earth Balance butter before in cooking this. I opted to eliminate any extra fat tonight. Perhaps our beloved Earth Balance was sorely missed. Hence the trebuchet, launching the food. And the potatoes, though good, they mushed more cooking with water than that might have in the soy butter.
