Quinoa is back in my life and I believe it's digging in for the long haul. I haven't made any formula with quinoa for a looooong time presently, so I'm eager to impart this one to you. It's so basic, yet soooo great. Something like a risotto, however not by any stretch of the imagination. Since it's not rice and in light of the fact that you don't need to mix until you get old and your hair gets dark (which wouldn't generally influence me – mine is dim since I was 17).

The best part is: you don't need to stress somebody's going to make you cry on Masterchef.
