Garlic and Ginger Glazed Bok Choi Tacos

Taco Ingredients:

4 corn tortillas
1/2 cup cooked quinoa
1/2 cup canned white beans, rinsed 
2 heads baby bok choy, sliced
2 cloves garlic, diced
1" knob ginger, diced
1 cap full of soy sauce (I know, such an exact measurement right? Probably about 1 t.)
1 t. sweet chili sauce
4 avocado slices (optional)

Instructions:

To make taco shells: Preheat oven to 425. Spray each tortilla with cooking spray and microwave for about 25-30 seconds. Being very, very careful drape each tortilla over two oven grates. Cook for 7-10 minutes or until edges have browned. Remove using a fork in one hand and an oven mit in the other.

Add garlic and ginger to a large pan over medium heat with 1 t. oil. Cook for about 5 minutes and then add bok choy. Cook for 1-2 minutes.

Add soy sauce and chili sauce and cook until bok choy has just wilted. Remove from heat.

Quinoa Salad with Spring Radishes and Greens

Ingredients:

1/2 cup quinoa
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons good, unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups microgreens or baby greens, such as arugula
1/2 cup sliced radishes
2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon fleur de sel or other flaky sea salt

Instructions:

Transfer the quinoa to a fine-mesh strainer, rinse thoroughly with cool water, and drain. Place rinsed quinoa in a small saucepan with 1 cup water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the butter. Bring to a boil, the reduce to a simmer over very low heat and cover. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed.

Remove the pan from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and spread the quinoa out on a dinner plate to cool completely.

Toss the cooled quinoa with all other ingredients. Taste and add more salt if desired. Serve by itself or on a bed of lettuce.

Recipe Notes
Make this salad into a complete meal with a poached egg, chicken, or salmon. It would also be very good tossed with some toasted almonds and goat cheese or feta.
