Sue’s tip:

This is a gluten-free breakfast.

To cook quinoa, rinse and drain 1 cup of uncooked quinoa. Put drained quinoa in a pot with

1 2/3 cups water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and cook until quinoa is tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. All water should be cooked away. Set pot aside for 5 minutes. Transfer quinoa to a covered container and refrigerate. Leftover quinoa will keep in refrigerator for a week. Use in salads, serve as a side dish, stir into soup.
