Directions

Step 1
Make the quinoa rice: rinse rice and quinoa under running until water runs clear. Set aside.
Step 2
Add water to a pot and bring to a simmer. Add the rinsed rice, quinoa, and salt. Cover the pot, and place the heat on low. Cook for 15 minutes. Remove the pan from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 10 minutes. Once done fluff with a fork.
