You can rinse the quinoa and let it dry in the sieve.

Dry roast it in a hot dry skillet for a nutty flavor.

Donna, this looks amazing--Thank you!!! I'm making a conscious effort

to eat more/a wider variety of whole grains, so the recipe (and the idea

of dry roasting quinoa--yum!) are very, very welcome :^) And I really

appreciate how warm and welcoming this list is, in addition to all the

great information. I'm going to try to join in the fun & post some of

my favorite recipes of the moment over the new few days :-)

 

Peace,

Maureen
