That looks really good and not so hard.  Did you try it?

I might try making this today, half the recipe as mini-cupcakes. It looks like a super fudgey recipe. I'll report back if I make them.

Here is another one, vegan too.  Have not tried it but it looks yummy, in the photo.  Also, seemed worth sharing after some vegan discussion in OT.

And this looks worth a try for the gluten free folks:

Stuffed jalapeno poppers.  Seems it needs some seasonings, but the basic premise looks yummy, and along the lines of something McC recenly posted.

Looks yummy. If you do those in poblanos they won't be too hot for most, would be larger (so one for a meal), and would be called rellenos (rather than poppers).

I will try!

It seems to me sweet potato would be good with that combination--either inside or as a side.

Another with chiles and adobo sauce.  Needs a big side salad or some veggies with it, IMO.  But still looks tastey.

And another one.  Have not made it, but it looks yummy!  Thought of Mookie and McC's families for this one.

Oof, 40 carbs, though.  Oh well, not for me, but it still looks yummy for those who can!

[Macabre]

Oh my goodness that looks amazing. DS agrees. We will make it! Grazie!

[becca]

Let me know how it turns out!  I bet it could also make a good appetizer, done in little mini muffin cups and with the dressing as a dip!

That looks really good like a quinoa falafel. The sauce is an easy enough fix I can leave the dairy out. I'd have to figure out a different binder than egg more for making it vegan than for allergies.

Bumped for Catelyn.

We borrow this quinoa cookbook from the library frequently:
http://www.amazon.ca/The-Vegetarians-Complete-Quinoa-Cookbook/dp/1770500979

The recipes are easy to follow and turn out well.

I think I may make this tonight.  No pesto, but that's fine.
