Quinoa Stuffed Kabocha Squash

[fitfool]

Want to make a vegetarian dish with an eye-catching presentation? This is the one! My past attempts at making quinoa tasted kind of bitter, leaving me indifferent to the high-in-protein grain that I keep hearing about. This time I followed instructions and rinsed the quinoa. Was that an important step? I'll be doing that from now on since it tasted

It was. :) The grains are covered with a bitter substance (saponin) that's meant to be a deterrent to birds.

This sounds lovely, I can't wait to try it!
