Quinoa is a healthy grain that can be substituted in most recipes for rice or couscous. I recently experimented with quinoa and made this dish which my husband and I both love. This easy-to-make and tasty side dish is similar to a pilaf.

I love quinoa and I wanted to make something that was flavorful and filling. The vegetables can be changed to your liking! Try these: zucchini, carrots, celery, green bell pepper, red onion, or whatever you have hanging around your kitchen.
