Shrimp with Pomegranate, Quinoa, and Butternut Squash
For a Near Eastern Friday Night in SE Pennsylvania (serves 2)

Glyn cooks mainly (ok, entirely) from instinct and availability. Tonight we have a pomegranate and a butternut squash sitting on the counter….oh, and shrimp, so…

As last night’s Tuscan dinner sinks slowly in the west, we journey eastward for this fusion dinner worthy of the Magi. Shrimp from the sea, quinoa and squash from the earth, and pomegranate from the spirit, make this a meal of Biblical proportion. Outside, the ice has melted, it’s raining, the weather is heating up and the forecast is threatening thunderstorms, which we receive as the energy of nature affirming the power of this dish. The wine? Pro-mis-Qous Red from Napa, because, well, we prefer Reds.

WARNING: This may well be the most flavorful dish you have ever eaten in your life. And Will thinks it…
