Add the 1 cup quinoa and stir briefly. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low. Let it simmer until all the water is absorbed, which should take about 20 minutes. Give it an occasional stir to prevent sticking.
Once cooked, remove from heat and let the quinoa cool completely. You want it to be fluffy and separate.
Leftovers can be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for two or three days.
It's generally at its best on the first day, when the fresh vegetables still have their crisp texture.
