ROASTED SQUASH AND RED ONION GRATIN WITH QUINOA
I have given you several winter squash gratins over the years; this is my favorite to date, because of the sweet layer of flavor of the roasted squash and the texture of the black quinoa.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with parchment or foil. Toss squash with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Spread on baking sheet in an even layer. Place in oven and roast for about 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until tender and caramelized. Remove from the oven and turn the heat down to 350 degrees. You should have about 2 cups roasted squash.
- Meanwhile, heat remaining olive oil in a medium skillet and add onion. Cook, stirring, until it begins to wilt, about 3 minutes. Add leek and a generous pinch of salt and cook, stirring, until onion and leek are tender, another 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and thyme and cook, stirring, until the garlic is fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute. Remove from the heat.
- Oil a 2-quart baking dish or gratin. In a large bowl, beat eggs and add salt and pepper to taste (I use about 1/2 teaspoon salt). Whisk in milk. Add onions and leek mixture, squash, Parmesan and quinoa, and combine well. Scrape into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake 35 to 40 minutes, until set and the top is lightly browned. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes or longer before serving.

QUINOA & BUTTERNUT SQUASH GRATIN
This is a delicious, savory vegetarian recipe with butternut squash and cheese. The original recipe called for Gruyere but I used sharp cheddar instead. I think both would work quite well. This was my first time using quinoa in a recipe, and I'm really hooked. The little quinoa spirals are filled with protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals, making it a valuable addition to a vegetarian diet.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400.
- Spray a 2-quart dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Peel and cube the butternut squash, then put in a microwave safe bowl.
- Microwave on high for 3-5 minutes until squash is soft and tender.
- Wash the quinoa in a fine sieve thoroughly (about 5 minutes) until water runs clear. This is very important, as quinoa has a bitter protective coating that can linger even after processing.
- Transfer squash and quinoa to a large pot. Add water and salt to pot and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and the quinoa blooms into little spirals.
- Remove from heat and let rest.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat in a small frying pan.
- Add shallots and cook 3 minutes.
- Add garlic and cook a minute or two longer, being careful not to let garlic burn.
- Pour over quinoa and squash mixture, mixing thoroughly.
- Add eggs, 3/4 cup of the cheese, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer to prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle remaining cheese and bread crumbs over gratin.
- Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoons of olive oil on top and bake for 35-45 minutes or until top is golden brown.

Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set aside.
- Place the squash in a medium bowl and add 3 tablespoons of the oil, the thyme and 2 teaspoons of salt and season with pepper to taste. Mix until the squash is well coated. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and spread squash out into a single layer. Roast until a paring knife slides into the squash with no resistance, about 30 minutes, stirring about halfway through the cooking time. Put the pistachios on a small baking sheet and toast until fragrant, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, rinse the quinoa in cold water in a fine-mesh strainer. Bring the broth or water to a boil and stir in the quinoa. Simmer, uncovered, until a small white spiral becomes visible in each grain, about 9 minutes. Drain the quinoa and transfer it to a medium bowl. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, the pistachios, cranberries, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the spinach in a large mixing bowl and toss with the hot squash until slightly wilted. Add the quinoa mixture and toss again. Serve warm or at room temperature.
QUINOA AND SQUASH GRATIN
I'm drawing in this recipe on the Provençal tradition of combining rice with vegetables in a savory gratin, but I'm substituting quinoa for the rice. You can serve this comforting gratin as a main dish or a side.
