Suggested use
1 cup quinoa + 2 cups liquid = 4 servings
Rinse quinoa under cold water until water runs clear. Place 1 cup of quinoa and 2 cups of water or broth into a saucepan.
Bring to a rolling boil, reduce heat to a simmer, cover with a lid, and cook until liquid is absorbed (about 15 minutes). Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and serve.
Flavor tip: Before adding the liquid, sauté quinoa in pan with a dash of olive oil until slightly toasted (about 5 minutes).
