Warm Blt Salad With Quinoa

• 1-1/2 cup Vegetable Or Chicken Broth
• 3/4 cups Dried Quinoa, Rinsed Thoroughly
• 1 pound Lean Bacon, Chopped
• 3 Tablespoons White Balsamic Vinegar
• 1/4 teaspoons Garlic Powder
• 1/4 teaspoons Salt

• 1/8 teaspoons Dried Dill

1. Bring broth to a boil over high heat in a medium saucepan. Add quinoa and return to a boil, then reduce heat to medium high and cook quinoa for roughly 20 minutes, or until all the broth has been absorbed. Remove from heat and set aside.
2. In a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, cook chopped bacon until crisp, stirring frequently. Remove cooked bacon from the pan and set aside, leaving the drippings in the skillet.
3. With the skillet over medium-high heat, add the vinegar, garlic, salt, thyme, pepper, and dill. Stirring consistently, heat until mixture is thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat.
4. In a large bowl toss together quinoa, greens, tomatoes, bacon and dressing and serve immediately.
