This came about one night while trying to figure out what to make with the odds and ends we had lying around in the fridge. This is what I came up with. You can change up the vegetables to suit what is lying around your pantry. For the spices, I fell back on one of my favorite mixtures: ginger, garlic, red pepper flakes and oregano but you can alter that too. If you've never tried quinoa, you are in for a treat. It has a slightly nutty, light taste and cooks up in just 15 minutes.

- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan combine the water, margarine and the quinoa. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and cover. Simmer over a very low flame until all the water is absorbed. About 15 minutes.

- Right before taking it off the heat, add the cherry tomatoes and the white poppy seeds.
- Serve alongside the cooked quinoa.
