From "Eight Weeks to Optimal Health". I haven't tried it yet but want to post it for safekeeping. Dr Weil says: Here is an unusual, healthy dessert made from the staple grain-like seed of the high Andes, now available in specialty food shops and health-food stores.

Steps:
- Place the quinoa in a sieve and wash it well under cold running water. Drain and place in a pot with 2 cups cold water. Bring to a boil, cover, lower heat, and boil gently until all the water is absorbed, and quinoa is tender, about 15 minutes.
- Measure 2 cups cooked quinoa and to it add the apple juice, raisins, nuts, lemon juice, and pinches of cinnamon and salt to taste.
- Simmer, covered, for 15 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Chill. Serve plain, or with berries or sliced banana or a little maple syrup if you want it sweeter.

ROBUST BEET SALAD BY DR ANDREW WEIL
Found this online. My crowd is big on beets and big on things with a hot kick. This looks very promising. Hope to try it soon. If you don't like to boil beets, you can surely roast them instead (yum), or, if in a pinch for time, use canned beets.

Steps:
- Cut off the beet tops about an inch above the beet. In a large pot cover the beets with three inches of cold water and bring to a boil. Cover and boil over medium heat until tender, about 45 minutes.
- Drain the beets under cool running water. Slip off their skins. Trim off stems and root ends and slice the beets thinly.
- Combine the sliced beets in a bowl with the other ingredients, add salt to taste, and chill. Stir several times.
- This salad will keep for a week in the refrigerator.

DR. ANDREW WEIL'S GRILLED OR BROILED SALMON
This recipe is based on one from Dr. Andrew Weil's book, 8 Weeks to Optimum Health. Use wild salmon for optimum health benefits as it tastes better and is more nutritious, and eating it does not have the environmental impact of eating farmed salmon, nor the health risks associated with it. Cook time doesn't include the 1-3 hours marinating time in the 'fridge. This makes a great meal with rice and a cooked vegetable or salad.
