Quinoa with Toasted Almonds and Golden Raisins

1 cup quinoa
1 ½ cups water (use water-not broth-for fluffier quinoa)
¼ cup toasted, sliced almonds (I use unsalted)
1/4 cup golden raisins
Salt & pepper, to taste

1) Rinse quinoa in cold water. Add 1 ½ cups of water to a cooking pot and bring to a boil. Add quinoa and reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 12 minutes. Then remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes.

2) Stir in almonds and raisins.

3) Fluff with fork.

Side dish for 4-5 people.
