Easy Healthy Quinoa

I must admit I am loving quinoa! I have heard and read how healthy it is, but have put off trying to prepare some. It is easy, delicious and nutritious. Here is an easy recipe I put together last night.

Spicy Quinoa:

Cook as directions dictate. 1 C quinoa to 2 C water

Throw some veggies in a saute pan with olive oil, I used 1 small zucchini and 1/2 a sweet onion.
After they are browned, add in the quinoa and then 1/2 C organic salsa and 2 tsp curry powder.

YUM!

I served this up with chicken breasts dredged in cornmeal and fryed. I added honey mustard sauce:
1/4 honey 2T mustard.
