This quinoa side dish is a tasty substitute for rice. It is lighter and cooks more quickly.

Get ready to pucker because this is pungent! Great topper for a big old Greek salad.
Timothy Green
This makes a wonderful hostess gift, especially for those who might otherwise not be familiar with feta or Greek cooking. A good start for developing those pungent taste buds! I think I would include a recipe using feta cheese with this gift, such as spanakopita triangles!
