I found some gluten free soy sauce and I'll have to try it using your method for cooking a little cabbage for the two of us. I never saut'ed it before.

I'm not crazy about quinoa but knowing that it's very nutritious, I'm always on the lookout for ways and means to dress it up. I saw your recipe here and thought to try it, but not having cabbage in the house, I substituted with bok choy and added some browned sesame seed.

It turned out delicious. Thanks.
