Just found a site called PracticalCookingForOne.com that shows how to make gourmet meals that are inexpensive and serve just one!  I can’t wait to make this recipe so I thought I’d share even though this makes 2 servings. Make tonight, and save the other half for lunch tomorrow.

Fall Quinoa with Sweet Potato, Walnuts, and Raisins – Makes 2 Servings

• 1 large sweet potato
• 1/2-teaspon ground cumin
• 1/4-teaspoon cayenne
• 1/2-teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2-cup quinoa
• 1 cup vegetable broth
• 1/4-cup roughly chopped walnuts (about 1 large handful)
• 1/4-cup raisins that have been soaked in boiling water for 10 minutes

1.  Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.

2. Peel the sweet potato and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Place on a lined baking tray and toss with cumin, cayenne pepper, cinnamon, olive oil, and a pinch of salt.

3.  Roast sweet potatoes until cubes are softened, about 12-14 minutes, tossing once halfway through cooking time.

4. Place quinoa and broth in a saucepan and bring to a boil.  Reduce to a simmer and cook until liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes.  Fluffen with a fork.

5.  Meanwhile heat a small skillet over medium heat.  Add walnuts and toast, tossing occasionally, until golden, about 2-3 minutes.

6.  In a bowl combine quinoa, sweet potatoes, walnuts, and raisins.  Season to taste with salt and pepper.

very true

Yeah I guess, but today sucked. 

I never looked at it this way, but it’s true. How will you know a day has been good if you don’t know what a bad one feels like?
