Steps:
- Cook the quinoa as the label directs. Meanwhile, puree the cilantro, lime juice, 2 teaspoons honey, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a blender. With the blender running, slowly drizzle in 1/3 cup vegetable oil. Toss the cooked quinoa with 3 tablespoons of the cilantro dressing and season with salt and pepper; set aside.
- Stir the remaining 1 tablespoon honey and the hot sauce in a small bowl. Lay out the tofu slices on a double layer of paper towels and gently press with another double layer of paper towels to dry. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season the tofu on both sides with the cumin and salt and pepper to taste. Add the tofu to the skillet in a single layer and cook until browned and crisp, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove from the heat and spread the tops of the tofu slices with the honey-hot sauce mixture.
- Divide the quinoa among bowls; top with the tofu, carrots, radishes and avocado, and season with salt and pepper. Top with the remaining dressing and cilantro.
QUINOA AND CHARD CAKES
I'd been thinking about making a sort of "burger" with quinoa and vegetables when I saw a recipe for chard cakes in the Dining section of The Times. I combined the two ideas and came up with these quinoa and chard cakes, which you can serve as a main dish or a side. A few days later, I made the same recipe but used spinach, which is lower in sodium, instead of chard (see variation below). Top these cakes with yogurt spiked with puréed garlic.

Steps:
- Fill a bowl with ice water. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt generously and add the chard leaves. Blanch for two to three minutes until tender, then transfer to the ice water. Drain, squeeze out excess water and chop medium-fine. Add the chard stems to the water, and cook four to five minutes until tender. Transfer to the ice water, then drain and cut in 1/4-inch dice. Measure out 3/4 cup of the stems, and reserve the rest for another purpose. Alternatively, steam the chard leaves, then the stems, above an inch of boiling water until tender. The leaves will take three to four minutes, the stems five minutes.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat in a medium or large skillet. Add the garlic. When it is fragrant, in 30 seconds to a minute, stir in the chard leaves and stems and the cumin. Stir together for about a minute, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to a large bowl, and add the quinoa, Parmesan and egg. Stir together.
- Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the canola oil together over medium-high heat in a large, heavy skillet. Moisten your hands, and shape the quinoa and chard mixture into four hamburger-size patties (or make smaller, fritter-ish patties). Carefully place the patties in the hot oil, taking care not to crowd them in the pan. Press down on the tops of the patties with the bottom of your spatula to prevent them from falling apart; if they are thick enough, they should stay together. Cook for four to five minutes on each side until nicely browned. Remove from the heat and serve.

QUINOA STUFFING WITH LEEKS, WALNUTS AND CHERRIES
I found this on a hunt for a gluten free stuffing that would appeal to a wide audience. It is delicious and was much enjoyed by all. It originates from Cooking Light, NOVEMBER 2006. Love that magazine! I subsituted dried cranberries for the cherries with great success. Note: We use no added salt in our household, so be sure to taste test and see if you want to add any.

QUINOA W/ LEEKS, CHARD, AND TOFU (PLUS OTHER FUN STUFF!)
I came up with this recipe when I got my first shipment from the local organic buying club and didn't even know what some of the veggies were! It turned out great - so I wanted to share it! It is a little spicy - so you can add the spicy Thai chili sauce as desired.

Steps:
- Cut all veggies into desired size - I like them cut into pretty small pieces.
- Add 2 cups of water to the quinoa in a separate pan. Bring to boil, cover, turn to low heat or remove from heat, and let finish cooking.
- In a separate saucepan, saute ginger and garlic until soft, then add onions until translucent. Add peppers and leeks; saute until tender. Add olive oil, white wine vinegar, and thai chili sauce along the way.
- On a separate skillet, grill asparagus until slightly tender and grill tofu until slightly brown.
- Add the asparagus and tofu to the onions, peppers, and leeks. Add any remaining olive oil, white wine vinegar, and sweet thai chili sauce. Add carrots and chard, cover and let chard wilt. Finally, stir in corn (after rinsing to reduce sodium).
