Ingredients:

Serving

2 -3 cups cooked quinoa
1 tbsp olive oil
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1 pinch tarragon
1 pinch marjoram
1/4 cup white wine
1/2 cup kalamata olive, roughly chopped (sliced in half is great )
1/2 cup capers
20 oz crushed tomatoes
fresh black pepper

Directions:

Preheat a sauce pot over medium heat. Add the oil and garlic and stir for about a minute, being careful not to burn the garlic. Add herbs, spices and wine; cook for about a minute.
Add olives, capers and tomatoes. Cook for about 15 minutes. You can serve either by scooping quinoa into individual bowls and pouring the sauce over it, or just mix everything into a bowl together and reserve a little sauce to pour over my serving.
To cook quinoa:.
Mix one cup dry quinoa with 2 cups water, bring to a boil then lower heat and cook uncovered for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until grain is tender and water has been absorbed.
