Christmas Dinner!

Merry Christmas! 
  Since this was a very low key Christmas for me, I made myself something a little different, and new! I had: Warm Quinoa Salad with Edamame and Tarragon.  http://www.delish.com/recipefinder/warm-quinoa-salad-edamame-tarragon-recipe-5643

I have been waiting to find a good Quinoa recipe, and to wait until the quinoa was on sale too (Quinoa is expensive!) So, when the stars aligned, and I had a free day, I got busy in the kitchen.  The recipe is pretty simple. This is actually the first time I've cooked with tarragon, and it is GOOD!  I also ran out of vegetable broth, and needed little less than a cup, so there wasn't a cooking emergency. 

Here is the official websites photo:

And here is my version:
The verdict:

Delicious!! The lemon and tarragon really make this flavorful!  The roasted red peppers are a perfect addition to the quinoa, spinach and edamame.  I recommend it!
