Lemon-Herb Quinoa

Directions

Place the quinoa in a large bowl.

Fill with cold water.

Drain into a strainer and repeat the rinsing and draining four more times.

Over medium-high heat, heat the oil in a 2-quart saucepan.

Add the rinsed quinoa and cook, stirring, until the quinoa makes cracking and popping noises, about 3 to 5 minutes.

Stir in the water, marjoram, thyme, and rosemary.

Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, covered, 15 minutes.

Stir in the parsley, lemon juice, salt, lemon rind, and pepper.

Simmer, covered, 5 minutes longer.

Fluff with a fork.
