I love quinoa and often eat it instead of rice or bread Quinoa is said to have the highest nutritional value among all grains. I've been experimenting with all kinds of ways to eat it. This is my own arrangement of a salad I often see at organic food stores.

Take it off the heat, give it a quick stir and transfer it to a large bowl. Let cool.
