You know, I never really cooked with it myself until about a year ago, when I rediscovered it in a salad at one of our stores. It would love at first bite. Like la florecita mentions, it is incredibly filling and as versatile as any grain out there. Rob and la florecita, thank you for the feedback.

For dinner, we mixed it with sun-dried tomatoes and feta and served it over some grilled portabellos, topped with fresh chopped basil. Then for breakfast, I used it to make a dish that was kind of a cross between oatmeal and kheer. I cooked it with water and milk until it was soft, then added crushed cardamom, fresh nutmeg and honey. We topped it with sliced peaches and it was great. I don't think we even ate lunch that day.

I have never cooked with quinoa, but am really looking forward to giving it a shot. I'm sure a bit of last weeks parm reg sprinkled on at the last minute before serving would put it "over the top!" Thanks! Rob Scott, thanks for a great quick dinner idea! I have never cooked with quinoa, but am really looking forward to giving it a shot.

Thanks!
