Directions

  1. In a large saucepan, bring broth to a boil. Add quinoa. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until liquid is absorbed, 12-15 minutes, adding broccoli during the last 5 minutes of cooking. Remove from heat; fluff with a fork.
  2. Meanwhile, in a small skillet, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add onion and green pepper; cook and stir until tender, 5-7 minutes. Stir in quinoa mixture, 1/2 cup cheese, salt and pepper. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Cover and let stand until cheese is melted.
