Another round of dishes from Appetite for Reduction:  Quinoa Puttanesca, Pineapple Collards, and Butternut Coconut Rice. 

These were not as big a hit as the previous dishes from the cookbook.  The butternut squash dish was pretty good.  Mr. GV said the sauce served on quinoa was kind of odd to him.  The greens must have been unremarkable, because I didn't hear much about those. 

We'll keep trying recipes out of Appetite for Reduction though.  You can't win them all!
