My mom gave me a big bag of quinoa in January, I just started to tackle it. I saved several recipes from fellow cooks here. I concocted this the other night, I think it is a very basic & flexible recipe, kind of a what do I have in the house or what do I feel like throwing in kind of thing :) Have fun & enjoy! My next one will be with small red beans & onions.
