Quinoa – basic recipe

1 cup Mixtura Latina White Quinoa (organic or regular)
1 tablespoon butter or oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
1 garlic clove, mashed or minced
1½ cups water or stock (chicken, beef, or vegetable)
Salt to taste

In a pot or casserole, heat the butter or oil over medium heat.
Add the onion and garlic. Sauté for 3–5 minutes until soft and fragrant.
Add the quinoa and water or stock. Bring to a boil.
Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for approximately 15 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the quinoa is tender.
Season with salt to taste. Fluff with a fork and serve.
Serving Suggestions:
Use cooked quinoa as a replacement for rice or pasta, or incorporate it into salads, stir-fries, grain bowls, and more.
