Quinoa Pilaf
Serves 4 to 6

- 2 tbsp diced carrot (25 mL)
- 1 cup quinoa, rinsed in several changes of water (250 mL)
- 2 cups hot vegetable or chicken broth (500 mL)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
In a heavy saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Sauté onion, celery and carrot until tender. Add quinoa and cook, stirring, until grains separate. Add broth, salt and pepper; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed and quinoa is tender. Fluff with a fork.
