Quinoa

Quinoa (keen-wa)... It's a grain that is high in protein and essential amino acids.  What it is not high in is taste.  It's really mealy and bland.  I'm pretty sure there isn't anything I could possible add to this to make it appeasing.  The dish I made today (above) was just onions and quinoa with a little seasoning. To try and up the ante, I melted some gruyere on top but it still was not awesome.  I've heard you can make a sweeter version using brown sugar, but I still have my doubts.
Also, I made a fail dinner.  I tried making quesedillas.  Trying to spice things up, I used cream cheese with red curry, adobe chili powder, ginger, crushed red pepper and black pepper.  I then spread that inside a tortilla and topped it with cheese and bacon and pan fried it.  I think I may have put too much cream cheese in them though.  I didn't think they were very tasty, however my fiance and brother ate them all, so I guess they couldn't have been that bad.  I guess I'm my worst critic.  Next week is chicken.  I cannot wait to learn how to fabricate a chicken.  Should be very interesting :)
