Spanish Chicken and Quinoa [Dairy-Free]

November 7, 2013 by EmmaEats

Are you ready for some comfort food? [gigya src=”http://grooveshark.com/songWidget.swf” width=”204″ height=”40″ flashvars=”hostname=cowbell.grooveshark.com&songIDs=25435522&style=metal&p=0″ allowScriptAccess=”always” wmode=”window”] Fall has arrived and it’s been wet and cold. It is November after all, so I guess it’s no surprise but it has meant a change from hovering out at the barbecue which is what I was doing two weeks ago! This hearty and flavourful dish epitomizes comfort food. It’s quick to put together and infuses the kitchen with a warm spicy aroma as it simmers […]

Warm Moroccan Quinoa Salad

February 14, 2013 by EmmaEats

Another quinoa recipe? Oh, this must be good. [gigya src=”http://grooveshark.com/songWidget.swf” width=”204″ height=”40″ flashvars=”hostname=cowbell.grooveshark.com&songIDs=25926007&style=metal&p=0″ allowScriptAccess=”always” wmode=”window”] And it is. Cozy and complex, not only is it delicious for the grownups, it’s a fantastic way to introduce Moroccan flavours to the kids. We stumbled upon this combination by accident — I was making the Mexican-style Quinoa and made way too much quinoa. The girls have been enjoying lots of dried fruits lately with our homemade granola and we happened to have Moroccan seasoning […]

Mexican-Style Quinoa with Pulled Pork

February 7, 2013 by EmmaEats

Where did January go? And why does it seem that it felt like the end of winter and the beginning of spring? Because, you know, it’s not. We still have more than a month before spring is here. [gigya src=”http://grooveshark.com/songWidget.swf” width=”204″ height=”40″ flashvars=”hostname=cowbell.grooveshark.com&songIDs=35890511&style=metal&p=0″ allowScriptAccess=”always” wmode=”window”] Since winter is still here (and we started to feel it again last weekend — so long balmy, rainy days, welcome back snow, wind and ice), we may as well make the best of it. […]

Keen-what? – Quinoa and Veggie Salad

August 29, 2011 by EmmaEats

Our family has hit a new level of rushing about. We are always in a hurry — whether we’re trying to get to classes and appointments on time, doing grocery shopping, or cleaning and cooking. That rushing around coupled with some very hot summer temperatures means that I’m working hard to have the stove/oven on for as little time as possible. Keeping the temperature in our kitchen below a sizzling 30C is definitely a good thing. And most days this […]
