Quinoa with Green Onions and Parmesan

1 1/2 cups quinoa

2 cups chicken stock

4-5 green onions, thinly sliced

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Using a heavy pan with a tight-fitting lid, bring 2 cups of chicken stock to a boil. Stir in quinoa, turn off heat, put the lid on the pan and let it sit for five minutes without lifting the lid.

While it cooks, thinly slice the green onions and measure 1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese.

After 5 minutes, remove lid and stir. Let cool for 2-3 minutes.

Stir in green onions and grated Parmesan. Season to taste with freshly-ground black pepper and serve hot.
