--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     2/3  c             Quinoa
   1 1/3  c             Water
     1/2  ts            Salt
   1      md            Turnip
   1      cl            Garlic
   4                    Scallions
   2      oz            Green beans
   1      c             Butternut squash -- 1/3" cubes

In a sieve rinse quinoa under cold running water until water runs
clear.

In a small saucepan bring water to a boil with quinoa and salt and
simmer mixture, covered, over moderately low heat until just cooked
through, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain quinoa in sieve (do not rinse) and
spread out on a plate to cool.

Peel turnip and cut into 1/3" cubes. Mince garlic. Slice scallions
thin on the diagonal and cut beans into 1/3" pieces.

In a steamer set over 1 inch boiling water combine squash, turnip,
and garlic and steam vegetables, covered, 7 minutes, or until almost
tender. Add beans, quinoa, and salt and pepper to taste and steam
3 minutes, or until beans are crisp-tender. Transfer mixture to a
bowl and toss with scallions.
