Ingredients:
2/3 cup water
1/3 cup quinoa, rinsed
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 small apple, peeled and diced
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 small parsnip, peeled and diced
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1 1/4 teaspoons 1-1/4 salt, divided
1 tablespoon minced fresh sage
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 large egg, room temperature
1 1/2 cups milk, divided

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375°. In a small saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add quinoa. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until liquid is absorbed, 12-15 minutes. Fluff with a fork; cool slightly.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat; saute apple, onion and parsnip with celery seed and 1/2 teaspoon salt until softened, 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in sage.

In a large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt. In another bowl, whisk together egg and 1 cup milk. Add to cornmeal mixture, stirring just until moistened. Fold in quinoa and the apple mixture.

Transfer to a greased 8-in. square baking dish. Pour remaining 1/2 cup milk over the top.

Bake, uncovered, until edges are golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving. If desired, sprinkle with additional minced sage.
