From the recipe box Marissa’s recipes by Marissa Lippert

Serves

4 to 6

Ingredients

	1	cup dry quinoa, rinsed
	2	cups water
	2	tsp. curry powder (add more for stronger flavor)
	1	tsp. salt
	1	Tblsp. extra-virgin olive oil
	½	cup onion, diced
	½	cup low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
	½	cup raisins
	⅓	cup pinenuts, lightly toasted in dry pan
	1	cup chickpeas, drained and rinsed (optional)

Steps

In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa, curry powder, salt, and water; bring to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer.
Cook thoroughly until water is absorbed, about 10-15 minutes until quinoa is lightly and fluffy.
While quinoa is simmering, heat olive oil in a large frying pan and sauté onions for 1 minute. Add chicken broth and raisins and simmer for 3-4 minutes. Add cooked quinoa, toasted pinenuts, and chickpeas if desired. Mix thoroughly and serve.
