This recipe is a great way to use up leftover quinoa. I like to make a big batch of quinoa on the weekend, and then I can use it throughout the week in different dishes.

This is a great basic recipe that you can easily customize to your liking. I like to add a little bit of chopped onion and bell pepper, and sometimes I'll use vegetable broth instead of water.
