Quinoa salad with peas, favas, feta mint and lemon I returned from Tuscany last Saturday night where I had spent ten amazing days teaching a food and lifestyle photography workshop. My head jet-lagged and full of beautiful scenery. The rolling hills, the wildflowers everywhere, the faces, the food. I miss it.
