Steps:
- Place the quinoa in a large, ungreased skillet and toast it, stirring frequently, over medium heat until it has a nutty aroma and has darkened slightly. Remove the quinoa from the pan and simmer in water, covered, until tender. There should be about 4 cups.
- Heat butter or oil or both in the skillet. Add onions and apple and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until they become very tender and golden brown.
- Stir in the cooked quinoa. Add thyme, season to taste with salt and pepper. Cook gently until heated through. Fold in parsley and serve as a side dish with poultry or meat or use as a stuffing.
