Red & White Quinoa

Quinoa is really high in protein and makes a great side dish!

Red & White Quinoa
1/2 cup red quinoa (I used Alter Eco Fair Trade brand)
1/2 cup of regular "white" quinoa (I like the organic TruRoots brand)
2 cups of spring or filtered water
Pinch of sea salt

Add quinoa to a pot, and water to cover. Rub the quinoa between the palms of your hands to rinse off the slightly bitter natural coating. Drain the water and refill with new cooking water.
Bring to a boil on high, add a pinch of salt, cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
