Cheesy Quinoa and Caulliflower

Ok this recipe may have won me over to both quinoa and cauliflower! So simple fast and easy to make.

1.5 cups Chicken broth (Vegetable broth would work well too for the vegetarians)
1 cup Quinoa
1 head Cauliflower chopped
1 cup Cheese shredded. I used marble-but a sharp cheddar would be great- experiment!(OK I put in more like 1.5 cups)
Salt and pepper to taste

In a pot bring broth and Quinoa to a boil.  If you like your cauliflower add it from the start.  If you like it a bit more al dente let the quinoa come to a boil and then add the cauliflower. Once it's boiling turn down to a simmer and cover for 15-20 minutes or until broth is absorbed. Turn stove off- add the cheese and cover.  Once cheese is melted stir, add salt and pepper to taste. I Garnished with just a bit of parsley.

If you like spicey- some hot sauce added would be great!
