Normally I buy Chicken Maryland pieces but this week I have gone with chicken wings. I was thinking soy honey but ended up with maple quinoa. I hope you like this quinoa recipe.

As is my want at the moment I cooked the quinoa in the baking tray to soak up the chicken juices as the chicken cooks. This quinoa recipe is so easy, it cooks itself.

    1. And so much easier to eat, just breaking them apart at the main joint and sucking the meat right off the bone #notaeuphemism
