Quinoa Side Dish
*I got this recipe from allrecipes.com

• 1 tablespoon butter
• 
  
• 1 cup uncooked quinoa
• 
  
• 2 cups vegetable broth
• 
  
• 2 teaspoons chopped garlic
• 
  
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, I used 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 
  
• 1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme, I used 1/2 teaspoon thyme
• 
  
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 
  
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 
  
• 1 dash fresh lemon juice (optional)

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the quinoa, and toast, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in broth, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, or until quinoa is tender.

In a bowl, toss quinoa together with garlic, parsley, thyme, salt, and onion. Sprinkle with lemon juice, and serve.

Serves 4

This went perfectly with the Dijon and Panko Crusted Tilapia!
