The Meal Project

ArtHouse sponsored a worldwide project called The Meal.
Here was our task (lifted from here):
"On February 24th at 12pm EST, join thousands of people around the world in a simultaneous global meal. Whether it's breakfast in LA or a midnight snack in Beijing, let's take a moment from our hectic lives and share it with strangers around the world. Snap a photo of yourself and your meal and mail it to us — we'll create an exhibition from these self-portraits, documenting the world's largest communal snack."
me and my "Dr Oz" quinoa
I got the recipe for the quinoa + prunes from the February issue of O. I like the fact that the prunes sweeten it up enough that I don't feel the need to add additional sugar.
Here is my version:

1 cup quinoa, rinsed
2 cup water
pinch of nutmeg
1 x 1" cube fresh ginger, grated
14 pitted prunes, chopped

put everything into a medium saucepan,
bring to boil,
simmer for 15 minutes, uncovered

makes 5 servings
