Anyone have any good quinoa recipes? I've tried this one, not bad:

2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed
1 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup quinoa
2 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon curry powder, or to taste
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
salt and pepper to taste

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook and stir for 2 minutes; add quinoa and cook and stir until lightly toasted, about 5 minutes.
Pour broth into the pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and add curry and chile powders; cover and simmer until tender, about 25 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

list some more!

Nice thing about Quinoa is that it's like a flavor sponge. I've used Cinnamon, Raisins, and Brown sugar for something sweeter (Think Breakfast). Honey and Agave are goo too. -Nic You have ignored this user.

Ingredients

1 cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
8 spears fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1 inch pieces
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1/4 cup raisins
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 tablespoon lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Bring the quinoa and chicken broth to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender about 15 minutes. Turn off the heat, and let the remaining liquid absorb into the quinoa.
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, onion, and red bell pepper; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the asparagus, mushrooms, raisins, and ginger; continue cooking until the asparagus is tender. Stir in the shrimp, and cook until the shrimp have turned pink and are no longer translucent in the center.
Stir the lemon juice into the quinoa, then toss the quinoa with the shrimp and vegetable mixture. Season to taste with salt and pepper before serving.

Made a new Quinoa dish tonight:

-Onion
-Garlic
-Pack frozen spinach
-Turkey Sausage (The kind that is shaped like a horse-shoe)
-2 C Quinoa
-4 C Chicken Broth/stock

Sweat onions. Add garlic and spinach (thawed and drained). Once garlic is golden, add sausage.

Once you think the sausage is done add Quinoa and broth according to pkg directions.

I added soy sauce and rice wine vin.

The only Quinoa recipie I've got is for a cauliflower salad, and involves cooking it in a pressure cooker.

Quinoa 100% and Water 350% in a Pressure Cooker. 1 bar for 4 minutes

Depressure quickly(running water), drain then spread on a baking sheet you had in the freezer (stops it cooking any more).

Microplane grate some cauliflower florets 150%

Mix everything with:

diced & peeled green apple, Celery, balsamic vinegar

Bit different but I like it
