Just had some last night with a tofu, mushroom and bell pepper stir fry and Trader Joe's Peanut Vinigarette. YUMMY!

I cook it with Herbox no sodium chicken broth - diced tomatoes - garlic - touch of salt and pepper - I also do this couscous too !

I saute it in olive oil then cook it with various seasoning. Usually garlic, rotisserie, red pepper, oregano, and basil. I'm gonna try parmesan cheese in it next time. You can also chop veggies in it like onion or pepper or tomato. It's pretty much flavorless without anything in it, so treat it like a rice or pasta and add whatever you think tastes good.
(I'm not much of a cook)

I'll cook up the quinoa plain (usually just one serving) and roast broccoli and tomato in the oven at the same time. When everything is done, I mix it up together, add about an 1/8 cup of feta and some balsamic vinegar. Really good and filling.

I just have it in replacement of oatmeal, or cereal sometimes in the morning.
I follow the instructions on the packet, leave it to cool, and put in the fridge. In the morning, I then mix in some honey, greek yoghurt, and strawberries, or other fruit. Very yummy, and oh so filling!

I like making a salad with black beans, corn, cilantro, tomato chunks, and rice vinegar.

I also cook it in replacement of rice or couscous to get a very filling side for chicken or fish dishes.

I bough some black quinoa at the bulk store the other day and I mixed it with the white quinoa. The final dish had a special look to it
