We recommend using only the light tan version of quinoa (the red, black and multicolor quinoa are harder to digest). To improve the digestibility of the quinoa, consider adding 50-100% more water and cooking an additional 20 minutes (until all the water is absorbed). If you choose to cook your quinoa longer, you will start the quinoa at the half way point of the chicken roasting. Once it is done cooking, simply remove the quinoa from the heat and let it sit with a cover on until you are ready to eat.
