Since whole grains are so nutritious and delicious, I pair them with vegetables quite often. I usually cook them on the stove in a saucepan with water, but you can also use a pressure cooker or crockpot to cook grains. In fact, I love to cook steel cut oats in the crockpot overnight so that I have a hot, creamy cereal waiting for me when I wake up!
Here are the directions for cooking quinoa: Rinse the quinoa in a fine mesh strainer to remove the bitter outer coating. Bring 1 3/4 cups of water or liquid to a boil and stir in 1 cup quinoa. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20-30 minutes or until the liquid has been absorbed and the quinoa is tender.
