My first go at Quinoa

My sister-in-law Shira sparked my interest in quinoa--a very very healthy whole grain. I bought some at Costco and decided to try a new dish tonight (I sorta combined to recipes I found on allrecipes.com). Not difficult, just a little time consuming with all the chopping. Devon said it was really good (which says a lot because he's not very passionate about food--I know, crazy right!) Anyway, I made the quinoa with chicken broth, cooked the following in a skillet, and added it all together:
Olive oil
Garlic
Sweet Onion
Chicken
Tomato
Green Pepper
Red Pepper
Zucchini
Mushrooms
Green Onion
Fresh Basil
Lemon juice
Cumin
Oregano
Salt & Pepper
Delicious and surprisingly filling! Definitely on the "make again" list.

Devon is a school boy!

I made Devon, I repeat, MADE Devon take this picture. I just thought I would regret it for the rest of my life if I didn't do it. So, enjoy and tease all you want. Here is Devon on his first day of law school! :)
