Quinoa is by far one of the healthiest grains available and this easy preparation is one of my favorite ways to eat it. When I know that I’ll have a busy week, I make a big batch on Sunday night and eat it all week.
Hint: Remember to buy your quinoa, raisins and pine nuts in bulk!

Oh my gosh that looks so good Gabi! This would be wonderful to take to the office for lunch—and I love it that quinoa is so high in protein—

Only… the instructions leave out the sausage… Might want to include that ;-)
Also, I used a Tofurky Sausage, which made it kosher. Slammin!!!
