Step by Step Method
Step 1
Heat skillet over medium heat and add the quinoa; cook for 3-5 minutes or until lightly toasted, stirring constantly. Add the sugar, cooking stirring constantly for an additional 5-10 minutes or until sugar is melted and amber colored. Transfer mixture to a baking sheet that was lined with parchment paper; spreading to a thin, even layer. Cool completely. Place in a zip lock bagging, tapping with a rolling pin to break apart clusters. Reserve 1/3 cup of the mixture and set aside.

Pour chocolate mixture into a 13 x 9 inch baking dish lined with parchment paper; spreading to 1/8 inch thickness and then sprinkle top with the reserved quinoa and the sea salt; pressing to adhere.
