Quinoa Taco Salad

For our Sunday dinner after Jarrett and the kids were at the beach all afternoon I made this for a light dinner. It was really good! Took 45 min. See page 46 of Dinner Illustrated. The quinoa makes a really great substitute for ground beef. I didn't use the chile in adobo, just used a generous amount of chili powder. Also, I'm not sure it's really necessary to use the escarole--I used a bag of a cabbage, carrot, lettuce chopped salad from Aldi, just didn't use the dressing in the salad kit. I served the salad with some quick broiled nachos with cheese on top. That's mostly what Gil ate, as you can imagine. Franny liked this quite a bit. Jarrett was in heaven. :) Will definitely make again --- would be perfect to bring to a potluck.
