Ingredients:

• 1 cup uncooked white quinoa
• 1½ cups water
• 1 tsp butter
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• ½ cup crumbled goat cheese (or more, to taste)
• 1/3 cup sour cream (low fat or 5% will do the trick)
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh basil

1. In a fine sieve, rinse quinoa well under cool water (this step is unnecessary if you've purchased already-rinsed quinoa). Combine quinoa, water and butter in a small saucepan and bring to a boil.Reduce heat to med/low and cover saucepan until quinoa expands and water is absorbed (about 15 minutes).
2. While quinoa is cooking, steam broccoli on the stovetop or in the microwave. (To steam broccoi in microwave, place in a shallow dish with 1/4 cup water and heat on high for 1 minute.)
3. Toss quinoa with sour cream, cheese, basil and broccoli. Garnish with extra basil and cracked black peppercorns.
4. Serve and enjoy!
