I got this recipe from a friend who was living in Ecuador. Quinoa was a staple of her diet there; it is a great source of protein. Ingredients:
1 cup quinoa, rinsed and drained |
2 cups chicken broth |
2 tablespoons basil pesto |
1 tomato, diced |
salt and pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Bring the quinoa and chicken broth to a boil in a saucepan; cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until the moisture is completely absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat; stir the pesto through the quinoa. Fold the tomato into the mixture. Season with salt and pepper to serve.
