Walnut & sage smothered lentil quinoa pilaf
Pilaf
Armenian cuisine

A little inspiration goes a long way.. I'm still fresh from the awesome cooking demo that Amanda & Merrill did at Sur la table last week. Came back home, tried to replicate the recipe using spinach, but it just wasn't as awesome, but on the other hand, I had fallen head over heel in love with the texture & mouth feel of quinoa! (Until then, for the most part, I'd been grinding up the quinoa into a batter!) <br />There is no interesting story to tell here...this was an experimental dish keeping with this weeks theme, that the family completely fell in love with and will be a regular at my table. Beluga lentils pair perfectly with the quinoa because of their tiny size. I'd substitute with French Puy lentils if beluga lentils aren't available. <br />
