Organizing recipes during self isolation.....

Throwing out recipes I have never used. I kept student favourites from my teaching  years.

Quinoa salad - weight watchers recipe book

I forgot to use the chives growing in my garden...I used dried cherries...

Any type of apple and nuts will work.

I boiled the quinoa in the microwave.  I use a huge 8 cup glass measure.

Pork Loin butterflied - roasted with vegetables


I bought a very large, heavy tenderloin.  To cook quickly and keep it moist I sliced it open. Season with your favourites: I used Montreal Steak Spice and a shake of Johnnies Garlic Seasoning.  Cubed new potatoes and sliced zucchini on the side as well as orange peppers. I spray the vegetables with baking release. PAM or in my case Kirkland brand.

The tenderloin was moist. Rest meat for 10 mins before slicing (juices stay in the meat). You can serve with any sauce you like (sweet chili, barbecue, or apple)
