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.
