Quick Quinoa With Dried Cranberries

 
Quick Quinoa With Dried Cranberries
quinoa-with-cranberries
This is one of my favorite recipes for a quick-grain.  The original recipe was from Whole Foods and we just made a few modifications.  If you want a vegetarian version just substitute the chicken broth with vegetable broth.  You can use red onion instead of white or even substitute scallions.  Sometimes we use dried cherries in place of cranberries; either adds a nice sweetness to the dish.

    We used yellow crookneck squash for our Summer Squash and Gruyere Frittata but zucchini or any summer squash will work. This will serve 4 people with a nice side of fresh fruit. We made it for two of us and we still have half for leftovers.
