White rice and fatty pork chops are replaced with protein-packed quinoa and lean pork tenderloin in this twist on a Vietnamese favourite. Daikon radish has a very pungent aroma, but its crunchy sweetness works well when pickled. If it's not your thing, you can substitute the same amount of carrot. This recipe is a great way to use up leftover quinoa; if you don't have any on hand, make it ahead and spread it out on a large rimmed baking sheet to cool quickly.

This recipe was inspired by the traditional Beef Wellington but I was looking for a healthier option. It is a relatively simple recipe that serves elegantly and makes a great impression. I generally serve the salmon with asparagus and a nice leafy green salad with avocado. Leftovers can be easily reheated and I have even served cold slices of the Wellington with a lemon aioli as an appetizer.
