A Recipe for
Autumn Quinoa & Butter Beans
Truths are first clouds; then rain, then harvest and food |
| Henry Ward Beecher |
“This root [the potato], no matter how much you prepare it, is tasteless and floury. It cannot pass for an agreeable food, but it supplies a food sufficiently abundant and sufficiently healthy for men who ask only to sustain themselves. The potato is criticised with reason for being windy, but what matters windiness for the vigorous organisims of peasants and labourers?” |
| Denis Diderot (1713-1784) L'Encyclopedie (1751-1772) |

Thoroughly rinse the quinoa by placing it in a large bowl and filling
the bowl with cold water. Drain the quinoa and repeat the rinsing

Melt the margarine in a 2-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add

softened. Stir in the orange juice, water, honey, salt, coriander,

squash; bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, 7 minutes. Stir in the
butter beans and quinoa, and return to a boil. Reduce the heat and

covered, 5 minutes longer.
