Directions:
- Rinse the quinoa and place in a medium saucepan with water and salt (now is the time to season!), cooking according to box directions. Cool.
- Heat Olive oil in a saute pan and then add leeks, sauteeing for 2 minutes over medium high heat (to get some color on them).
- Add the stock, lower the heat, and cook the leeks for about 5 minutes (until tender). Stock should be almost gone.
- Add the cooked quinoa and stir to heat through. Remove from the heat.
- Add the remaining ingredients and drizzle with a fine-quality extra virgin olive oil, if you so choose. Also nice with toasted pinenuts.
