Made this last weekend and it was wonderful! Thought at first a teaspoon of pepper would be overwhelming but it was not. This is now in my "favorites" Even better the next day. Thanks for sending it Jess!

Good starting point/idea for a way to jazz up the healthy grain. Nice thing is you can change up this recipe in a thousand different ways to add the the flavors you are looking for.

I loved this dish. I had some quinoa sitting in my pantry and needed to do something with it. This was perfect. I didn't have any bouillon cubes so substituted half of the water with beef broth. I also omitted the carrot since I didn't have any and added more spinach and some salt at the end. Overall, quick, easy, delicious dish that I will definitely make again.

Admittedly, I had higher hopes for this one, but it was just OK. I am a huge fan of quinoa - not sure if it was the thyme in it that didn't go, but this dish didn't have a ton of flavour, despite the onion and me adding a few cloves of minced garlic. Regardless, it was decent, but there are way more quinoa dishes out there that are much better!

LOVE this recipe. We originally made it using black quinoa for a festive Halloween side and have been hooked ever since. The flavors blend well and can be tweaked easily by trading out seasonings to compliment many of our main course choices.

recently became a Quinoa fan & have cut out rice. very nice recipe, for those who said it didn't "pop", here's a little Indian secret...get "Biryani Mix" seasoning from the Indian store & put in a spoon of this when you add the black pepper. Amazingly tasty & flavor compliments the pilaf.

Delicious! My first time cooking quinoa...although I've had a bag in the pantry forever. I did not have bouillon granules so I used 2 tsp of chicken base. Canned broth should work, too (in place of water).

This is one of the best Quinoa recipes we have tried yet. We had squash from the garden so we tossed it in, and used stock instead of bouillon, but it was awesome! Thank you so much for sharing!
