I made Quinoa last night for the first time... I used chicken broth instead of water when making it to give it some flavor... We didn't hate it! I'm hoping to incorporate it more into my rotation of sides for a healthier option... Does anyone have any great ideas to make it more interesting?

Re: Foodies/ Health Nuts
I agree, broth does make it better. I've used beef broth too.
I normally just serve it as a side, but I've seen it done up nicely in salads. I want to say that kaesha has done one on her blog, but I follow a lot of blogs, so who knows!
Yay for quinoa!
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
