A great side, October 27, 2004 - 07:37 PM
Reviewer: Jen from Worcester, MA
I've never tried quinoa before and I'm glad I "cut my teeth" with this recipe because I'll be making it again.
The sun-dried tomatoes give it a hint of sweetness which was perfect.
This would be good as a side to chicken or turkey.
