Thank you Kelly!  It is amazing how much one little food can open so many doors!  Oh, another good food substitute is a product called Bragg's it is liquid amino acids and can be used to replace soy sauce and is much healthier!

I spray Braggs on cubed tofu and bake in the oven.  You could also do a stir-fry with this combo.

If I'm not mistaken, quinoa grain is used in tabouleah salad and I love that. Sounds like there is a difference between quinoa flakes & quinoa grains. I will try all of your ideas.

Traditionally tabouli is made with cous cous but there are some places who make it with the quinoa instead.  In fact that is one of the first ways I tried it was in a tabouli salad this last weekend.  Yes there is a difference between the grains and flakes both are really good!

Anyone know how to cook the grains? Just boil like rice? Never heard or quinoa but love trying new things! Thanks! Jen

If you buy the whole grain quinoa it is 1 cup of grain to 2 cups of water.  Make sure you rinse the grain really well  before cooking though (you need a mesh strainer for this) and then put the water and grain on bring to a boil, cover and simmer until all water is absorbed.  It's really easy to make (I did it while arranging my new kitchen)!
