    Thanks for the recipe.

    I thought it was serendipitous that I happened to glance at this thread AND have all the ingredients listed on hand (that almost never happens to me!), so I've got these puppies baking in the oven right now. Thank you!!!! :)

    Quick question: 1 cup of quinoa before or after it's been cooked? Thanks!

    Bump!

    Quick question: 1 cup of Quinoa before or after it's been cooked? Thanks!
    I believe the ratio is 1c water to 1/2 c Quinoa before cooking for this recipe as per the link below.
