Delicious and so easy! I use a little less lemon juice in the stock. It's my fiance's favorite way to eat quinoa.

If you follow the recipe to a tee, you are going to seriously regret it. There is WAY too much lemon in the recipe. My husband could barely choke it down and that was after I tried to save it by modifying the final results. Sorry Giada but I will be using extreme caution if I ever try one of your recipes again.

This was my first attempt at quinoa and it completely flopped! It had WAY too much lemon in it. I could barely eat it. My husband took one measly bite and almost spit it out. I'll read reviews before I make any more of Giada's recipes and adjust accordingly. I'm not sure if I'll try quinoa again though. This might have ruined it for us.

This is my new favorite lunch bite or dinner side!! I took several reviewers' suggestion of cutting back on the lemon. I've also now taken to adding toasted pine nuts as well as plump blonde raisins (from gourmet store; not the bland little Sunmaid ones - absolutely delicious add-ins! I think I've shared the recipe with at least a dozen girlfriends now. Thanks Giada!

I made this with the Grilled Salmon with Citrus Salsa Verde from the same episode, and the flavors of the two dishes married very well. It was my first time cooking quinoa, and I thought it was a delicious recipe - one that I will definitely try again and perhaps with different combinations of herbs to match whatever main dish I'm cooking.

Way too much lemon juice for my taste! I love the herbs though!

Always looking for ways to use quinoa and this is one of my favorites. I was expecting it to be a little bland, but thought I'd try it anyway along side the Salmon with Citrus Salsa Verde. There is so much flavor in this dish...the lemon is tremendous. It's very tasty and is perfect with the salmon. It's a must try if you're looking for a healthier side dish.

I have made this at least a dozen times. My family loves this with salmon and steamed broccoli. I leave out the lemon juice in the dressing, but still add the lemon zest. I usually throw in whatever herbs I have around or substitute dried herbs if I'm out. LOVE this recipe!
