Rice and Quinoa with Raisins and Almonds

I adapted this recipe to meet some random cravings I was having as well as to add protein and to make it vegetarian.

Ingredients:
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
3/4 cup uncooked white rice
1/4 cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed
1/4 cup raisins
1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
1/4 cup sliced (or chopped) almonds
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
Heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and sautee them until transparent. Stir in rice, quinoa, raisins and broth. Bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the rice and quinoa are cooked through. Stir in the almonds before serving.
