So I made this dish last night and it was so good I just had to share it.
I cooked a cup of quinoa with onions and peppers, tossed it with with a can of vegetarian chilli (but meat chilli would work too) and some sauteed diced zucchini. Put it in a lightly-oiled 8" square pyrex. In food processor, mixed 8 oz container of light sour cream, 8 oz. 75% reduced fat cheddar, one cup of frozen corn, 1/2 cup fat free evaporated milk , two eggs and some chilli powder and blended until smooth. Stirred 1/4 into the quinoa and poured the rest on top, topped with some chopped green olives. Baked at 350 for 45 minutes. Served with salsa. So good.
