So i made spaghetti for dinner tonight with the yummiest corn/quinoa noodle i've had yet! I believe it's called ancient harvest and it's completely gluten free and cooks just like a regular wheat noodle. I made shells with dinner tonight and i'm going back to the store for more of these goodies! It certainly makes life easier finding something to substitute such a tall order as the traditonal spaghetti noodle. Quinoa on it's own is tricky business with me because i really don't enjoy the taste of it, some people say it's just like couscous but i don't agree, quinoa always has a weird taste unless it's buried in a good dish. This box of noodles was the perfect combination of corn and quinoa, super cool and very satisfying. I never thought a simple noodle could make me so happy but after living with food allergies for almost two years now, it's wonderful to find products like these. Maybe i'll write them a letter telling them how great there noodles are!!
How do you cook your Quinoa? Again another place I use stock. I pretend it's a pilaf and add shredded veggies. Like carrot and zucchini and I love it.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to try the shredded veggies! That sounds yummy.
