Advice on sprouting Quinoa...

I would like some advice on the safest/easiest ways to sprout quinoa without a sprouter, as for some reason, somebody broke into my home last night, stole the little ghetto rigged sprouter I had built, along with around $30, my tv remote, a couple pillows, various food from my fridge, and my rain jacket... Im thinking lots of drugs may have been involved,lol... Thanks ahead of time for any advice you give.

Update: solved my problem!!!
I took two cheap gladware wannabe containers, cost me 50 cents each, and poked tons of little holes with a needle in the bottom of one, then put some pebbles I boiled into the bottom of the one without holes, and the second on top, put my rinsed quinoa in there with a little more water, which drained down into the pebbles, put the lid on and waited, rinsing a couple times a day and draining out excess water when there was to much... got me some quinoa sprouts in only 2 days ^_^

I started sprouting Red Quinoa, using a glass jar. They have to be rinsed immediately before eating, otherwise they taste weird. I have wondered if red quinoa is safe to eat.
