So..I'm trying to be so thrifty and healthy. DGD is gluten free, so I wanted to make a chicken soup using quinoa instead noodles. Southwestern recipe. And using leftovers. I had the broth, chicken, carrots, basil, etc. and quinoa. Of course, I misread the recipe. Instead of 3/4 cup quinoa..I put in 2 1/2 cups. 15 mins. later...Voila! Quinoa casserole. So..bigger pan, lots more water, chicken base, lots of herbs. Now I have to invite a small village to supper. But its pretty (with just a hint of chicken and carrots.)

Oh my. I'm laughing myself silly. Haven't we all done stuff like that. At least you like the soup and can eat on the leftovers...and eat on the leftovers....and..
Thank you for a hearty laugh! :-)

ROFL... Oh judith. I can so see it having done the same too many times myself. Well, you will have leftovers for a while.
Wish I was there to share, I love quinoa
