CHERRY WILD RICE SALAD
While touring Door County, I sampled this salad. As soon as I got home, I wrote the lady who'd made it requesting the recipe. The mix of rice, vegetables and orchard-fresh fruit is a tasty way to remember Wisconsin's premier cherry-growing area. -Yvonne Gorges, New London, Wisconsin

CHERRY WILD RICE AND QUINOA SALAD

Steps:
- TIPS & NOTES Make Ahead Tip: Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours. Tips: Although quinoa-a grain that was a staple in the ancient Incas' diet-was once only found in natural-foods stores, it's now readily available at most large supermarkets and even warehouse stores. Rinsing removes any residue of saponin, quinoa's natural, bitter protective covering. Most quinoa is sold already rinsed; check the label. To pit fresh cherries, use a tool made for the job-a hand-held cherry pitter; it also works for olives! Or pry out the pit with the tip of a knife or vegetable peeler. Toast chopped or sliced nuts in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant and lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes. Spread whole nuts on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F, stirring once, until fragrant, 7 to 9 minutes. NUTRITION Per serving: 282 calories;
