Prepare quinoa like rice. Bring water and quinoa to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, chop other ingredients. When quinoa is cooked, allow to cool for a few minutes (or the cheese will get gloppy and melty). Stir in other ingredients. That's it...you're done!
You can also replace the sun-dried tomatoes and feta with fresh grape tomatoes sliced in half, dried cranberries, and pistachios or pine nuts. Or any other flavor combination you like!
