Recipe Review

This is what you make when you want people to think you spent an hour making just a salad (when really you didn't...shhhh). If you've got leftover quinoa this is the perfect thing to make. Toss it with some lemon juice, herbs, cucumber, and red onion. Then make a vinaigrette. I used red wine, never seen champagne before. Toss some green salad with your dressing, put some orange slices on top, add your endive leaves and fill them with your quinoa salad! Done, so yum!

Oh yeah, too much lemon is called for in the quinoa, I would half that amount.

Sounds fairly simple yet elegant!

It was! I'm waiting on my new camera battery to get here anyday so I can finally post some pictures. This one in particular would have been really pretty.

I can't wait to try this -- I don't have the book but your review gives me enough incentive and information to go on that I can at least try a version of it.

It really is one of those things that doesn't need a recipe. Any grain salad would do and the important thing is the little endive boat. So cute!
