Quinoa!

So I made quinoa last night. Just in case my readers don't know what that is, it is pronounced keen-wah and it is a grain that you cook similarly to rice. (That is an awkward phrase... I'm not sure if I used "similarly" correctly; please forgive my error if it is one! I think you get my drift, regardless.) It has a good amount of protein, considering the fact that it's a grain, and it has a bunch of vitamins and minerals, which is an extra bonus. I was not sure if I would like it, but I was willing to give it a fair shot. I browned it in butter, and then cooked it with vegetable broth, and it was great! Adam loved it! So I definitely think this will be added to our general repertoire of foods :) If you haven't tried it, you should. I approve.
