I make a quinoa salad with yellow peppers, red onions, halved cherry
tomatoes, baby spinach leaves, scallions, basil, chickpeas, and feta
cheese. Dress with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. It goes with
anything and the leftovers keep very well.

I just cook the quinoa in water - there's enough other stuff in the
salad that you don't need to flavour it with stock.
