    This is a perfect compliment to so many dishes. We made it with roasted veggies, pan fried panko crusted rock fish. WOW!! So healthy and tasty. We layered the quinoa with the veggies and topped it with the fish. Amazing.

    Easy, but a bland recipe. The pine nuts added most of the flavor, to the detriment of the recipe. It needs something more to compliment the pine nuts. It could use more experimenting.

    This is a simple and flavorful recipe. Everyone liked it. It had to simmer much longer than I expected for some reason, and I had to drain some of the broth at the end of the cook time to fluff up the quinoa.

    Great for a pretty basic quinoa recipe. Will surely make again and try some additions. I used tri-color quinoa and one whole sweet onion. (only bcuz I got distracted and plopped the whole thing in instead of 1/2 No harm done. I just cooked them till they were nice and caramelized. I also substituted almonds and basil for pine nuts and parsley. ( because that's what I had Was really nice.

    Excellent! I substituted toasted sliced almonds for the pine nuts, shallots for the onions since they have a milder taste, and lowered the amt of parsley to 1/4 cup. The recipe turned out wonderful. It was full of flavor. Even my 9 year old daughter took a second helping !!! Will definitely make again. It is a good base to do different variations.

    Absolutely delicious! I've been wanting to try cooking quinoa and was so happy I did. I used parsley and cilantro because I had a lot in my garden. Even my 9-year old loved it!
