Just experimenting a little and decided to try a little food processing while my Quinoa was cooking. I wanted to add veggies to the Quinoa, but tired of just the regular chopped and thrown in routine.
I put brown button mushrooms, red pepper, and red onion in the processor (I have the mini-Cuisinart, so I just fill it), and chopped fine, though not to the point of sawdust, lol.
I turned that into a bowl and added chopped garlic and chopped fresh tomato. I added some tamari sauce and it was like a tapenade! I could easily have added chopped olives, capers, or a little salsa to the mix to achieve variations on the flavor. Next time, I'll try something different and serve it up on toast or Kavli cracker bread. The consistency is what works well and I love tapenade!
I added the hot Quinoa to the bowl (I cooked a mix of red and white) and stirred it all up. Absolutely delicious.
Onward
