Quinoa is a healthy grain that can be substituted in most recipes for rice or couscous. I recently experimented with quinoa and made this dish which my husband and I both love. This easy-to-make and tasty side dish is similar to a pilaf.

Ingredients

  • olive oil: 1 Tbsp
  • mushrooms: 1 pack (8 ounce pack, chopped)
  • onion: 1 piece (chopped)
  • clove garlic: 1 piece (minced)
  • butter: 1 Tbsp
  • ½ cups quinoa, rinsed: 1 piece
  • chicken broth: 3 cups
  • Parmesan cheese: 0.33333 cup (grated)

Cover and reduce heat to low; simmer 10 minutes. Stir in the sauteed mushroom mixture and cook another 2 minutes. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese to serve.
