I have to admit, this was the first time I cooked with quinoa. I had a bag of quinoa in the kitchen for a very long time, but never had the “courage” to try it out!  It was something new and I had no idea how to cook it. The combination between quinoa, feta cheese, and olives is amazing! You’ll have to try it and see for yourself!

  1. Just to clarify. Do we use 1 cup of already cooked quinoa or cook 1 cup of dried quinoa that we cook and then use?

  13. I’ve made these twice already! They are simply delicious. I used to make quinoa muffins with lots of chopped vegetables (carrots, peppers, mushrooms, whatever it was on hand) but this gives the whole idea a new twist. I don’t know how it never crossed my mind to add olives. They’re always there in the fridge in a big jar!
