Directions

  1. Place quinoa in a fine sieve and rinse under cold running water. Reserve. (Rinsing quinoa removes the bitter film covering the grain.)
  2. Heat butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onions and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, or until soft and translucent. Add quinoa and stir to coat well with butter. Pour in chicken bouillon and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed and quinoa is tender.
  3. Stir in spinach, green peas and mint, and allow to warm through. Add feta cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and stir.
  4. Serve warm as a side dish for grilled meat.
Aide-gourmet tip: Although quinoa is prepared like a grain, it is actually the seed of a spinach-like plant. It has a crunchy texture and a slight hazelnut taste.
