Steps:
- Place the quinoa in a sieve and wash it well under cold running water. Drain and place in a pot with 2 cups cold water. Bring to a boil, cover, lower heat, and boil gently until all the water is absorbed, and quinoa is tender, about 15 minutes.
- Measure 2 cups cooked quinoa and to it add the apple juice, raisins, nuts, lemon juice, and pinches of cinnamon and salt to taste.
- Simmer, covered, for 15 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Chill. Serve plain, or with berries or sliced banana or a little maple syrup if you want it sweeter.
