Vegeterian Tips: Most Chinese restaurants have many vegetarian options, and some use tofu or fake meat. Otherwise, try rice, soup, and spring rolls or other appetizers to form a great meal. Just remember to ask for no MSG to stay healthy.

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

  • 1 cup quinoa, rinsed well
  • 3 cups orange juice
  • 1/2 cup raisins, dried currants, or dried cranberries (whichever you like!)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions:

1) heat olive oil, add lemon zest and quinoa; saute until
quinoa starts to heat and the aroma of lemons is strong.

2) add your dried fruit, stirring to coat.

3) add orange juice, and steep until all liquid is gone.

This pilaf is great with a sour or salty main dish, or as a
breakfast dish! It also, when hot, works well in a mold,
for really fancy presentation.

Serves: 8-10

Preparation time: 30 minutes (or less!)
