    Quinoa and Celery Salad (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    The warmer months provide a steady demand for light, easy salads. Quinoa is one of those great foods that taste great warm or cold and holds up well against the other unique flavors in this salad.  This great summertime salad offers a fresh and tangy alternative to more traditional pasta salads, with just a hint of sophistication. It's a great dish for picnics, potlucks and your own kitchen table.

    Ingredients:
    1 cup quinoa
    3 large celery stalks, thinly sliced
    1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
    3-4 radishes, thinly sliced
    ½ red onion, diced
    ¼ cup fresh dill, chopped
    1 cup crumbled feta cheese
    ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
    ½ cup olive oil
    2 cups water
    Salt and pepper to taste

    Directions:
    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add quinoa. Cook until fluffy, about 12-15 minutes and transfer to a serving bowl. Stir in celery, tomatoes, radishes, and onions.

    In a small bowl, whisk together oil and vinegar. Pour over salad toss lightly to coat. Fold in cheese and season with salt and pepper. Garnish with a sprinkle of dill.

    Quinoa and feta - a match made in heaven. I suggest trying this recipe with about half the feta and then adding more if you think it needs it. Because quinoa has its own creamy mouth texture, a little cheese goes a long way.

    Sweet and spicy join hands and dance in this no-fuss marinade that goes great on a variety of meat. This recipe yields 2 cups and lasts about 5 days in the refrigerator. Typically, the longer you marinate, the deeper the flavor, but even 30 minutes is enough for this sauce develop a unique tang. The colors and fragrance make for a nice presentation if using a finishing sauce.

      Severe Itching And No Rash

      Are you scratching hard enough to leave bruising -- the dark marks? But no rash? And worse with exercise? And no flaking? I had vitamin deficiencies that caused neuropathy - itching, buzzing, tingling sensations, that I would scratch until I left bruising. Many of the B vitamins, if deficient, can cause this itchy feeling without a visible...
