This was a very tasty side dish - I served it topped with Ww Shrimp With Cilanto and Lime - 5 Pts. and Bek's Famous Pico De Gallo in place of the red peppers and green onions. Unfortunately, I had to omit the jalepeno for the kids, but I'm sure it would add a lot to the flavors. I will definitely make this again!

This is a very good side dish. Before I made it, I toasted my quinoa and then rinsed it. I did add an extra 1/4 cup of water to it, as it absorbed most of the water by about half way through the cooking time. I heated it a little right before serving since we wanted it to be hot. I think I would use a little less green onion next time. Definitely serve with the lime wedges, it gives it a great flavor. Thanks, Sweet Baboo!

We thought this was quite tasty. I served it with corn on the cob and a salad made with avocados, jicima, tomatoes, lime and cilantro. The best part of this dish is the pepita cilantro pesto. I may have to use that sauce again for other dishes. Thanks for posting, I would make this again.
