best quinoa recipe?

Question

ideas???

Answer 1

cook per instructions. i like to stir in some smart balance or butter if you prefer - chopped scallions and lite soy sauce to taste

if you're feeling adventurous, you can put in a couple of tablespoons of dehydrated vegetable flakes before you cook it. kind of like a cross between chinese and japanese fried rice without the frying.

Answer 2

I make this at home for my family and they love it. Best Wishes.

Ingredients:
1/3 cup Quinoa
1 cup Water
1 tablespoon Olive oil
4 teaspoons Lime juice
2 cloves Garlic
1/4 teaspoon Cumin
1/4 teaspoon Ground coriander
1 tablespoon Fresh cilantro; finely chopped
2 tablespoons Scallions; minced
1 can (15 oz size) Black beans; drained
2 cups Tomatoes; diced
1 cup Bell peppers; diced
2 teaspoons Fresh green chiles; minced
1 dash each salt and pepper; to taste

Rinse the quinoa well in a sieve under cool running water. In a saucepan, bring water to boil, add quinoa, cover, and simmer on low heat until all of the water is absorbed and quinoa is tender, about 10-15 mins. Allow to cool for 15 mins.

In small bowl, combine oil, lime juice, cumin, coriander, cilantro, fresh garlic and scallions. Stir in beans, tomatoes, peppers and chiles. Add cooled quinoa, and salt and pepper and combine thoroughly. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
