Quinoa with Corn and Jalapeno

Since it's been a while since I have posted, I figured I'd throw in a freebie. 
There are no pictures, since it's just a side - but it's still delicious.

Ingredients: 
1 cup cooked quinoa (2 cups water, 1 cup quinoa - let it start to boil, then cover and let it simmer 15 minutes)
Olive Oil
Corn kernals from about 2 ears of corn
1 avocado chopped
1 jalapeno seeded and diced
S&P (to taste)
Feta cheese

The How To:
Mix the quinoa, olive oil, corn kernals, avocado, jalapeno, feta and S&P.

Delicious.

28: Steak Burkechwan

Yep, you read that right, Steak Burkechwan.  That name won over Steak Bethechwan.  Either way - it's a total Beth creation.
We had some leftover steaks, and some rice noodles that I have been wanting to do something with so this dish was born.  I do want to be honest, I had no intentions of putting this on the blog, but after we tasted this delicious dish I need a record of how to make this again.  This really is a post more for me than you. With that being said, the pictures are lacking and I am hoping the "how to" section is worthy, I was really just smelling and tossing things in. Without further adieu... 



Ingredients:

*Cooked steak (I had about half of a big rib-eye left over) 
*Ka-Me Stir Fry Thai Rice Noodles (link)
1 jalapeno (seeded and diced)
1 green pepper (seeded and diced)
Olive oil
Soy Sauce
S&P
Hot sauce of some sort (I used Merrilily Gardens Five Pepper Barbecue Sauce) 
*Sriracha sauce
Chili sauce
Ginger 
Paprika
Sesame oil

*not pictured

The How To:
Cut the steak in cubes
Heat olive oil in a medium sauce pan
Add jalapeno and green pepper and cook until tender (about 2 minutes)
Add the steak, some soy sauce, ginger, hot sauce, sriracha, paprika, and a tiny bit of sesame oil
Cook until boiling - about 7 minutes
Add noodles and cook for about 3 minutes

I know the measurements are lacking, but I really just added it until it smelled good.  It was so delicious that I know I'll be making this again.  Obviously, this dish (maybe not the name) is Will approved.
