Stir together broth, quinoa and onion in large skillet. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed.
Add 1/4 cup cheese to skillet, stirring constantly until cheese melts. Stir in drained tomatoes, sausage and spinach. Heat 3 to 4 minutes or until mixture is hot. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese.
Quinoa is typically found in the rice and pasta section of supermarkets. Rinse well before cooking to remove the natural bitter coating, if it is not pre-washed.
