We've been talking about doing a grain salad/mixture for awhile now, and tonight we finally did. We based it loosely on a recipe from a blog post Justin had sent me awhile ago, however it was different enough that I'm not going to bother linking that recipe. Its actually pretty simple to make.

Ingredients:

2 acorn squash
1 bunch swiss chard, washed and torn
1 onion, diced
1 cup garbanzo beans
1/3 cup dried cranberries
1 cup quinoa, dry
2 cups broth
1/4 cup fresh chopped parsley
pepper to taste

Dressing

1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp honey
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place squash on a large baking sheet sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, or until tender. Meanwhile, cook quinoa in the broth according to package directions. Whisk together the dressing ingredients in a large bowl, and add remaining ingredients. Add the cooked quinoa, the chard and onions to the bowl, tossing to coat with the dressing. Once the squash is done, scoop the stuffing into the center of the squash and serve.
