Preparation

Cook Quinoa
Rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold water to remove bitterness. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and 2 cups of vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until the quinoa is fluffy and the broth is absorbed.
