Quinoa

I have been able to suppress my hippy side fairly well since I have been in PA.  But, I must confess, it's been raging lately.  I guess it's not really hippy so much as granola?  I don't know.  Anyway, I have been cooking with Quinoa a lot lately and I had to share it with you guys.  It's super easy to cook and it's really healthy.  It's a complete protien by itself so I try and use it on our "meatless" night meals.  Lately I have been adding it our beans when we make tacos or burritos and it's been really good.  It doesn't have much flavor and I use it like I would rice.  I even just cook it in my rice cooker.  I don't have a picture, so I got one from the internet because I like pictures.  Anyway, I will post some recipes that I've used it for soon.
