We discovered quinoa (keenwah) a couple of years ago, and we love this delicious nutritious not-quite-grain. We'll show you how to cook quinoa - it's easy, just like cooking rice.
We're not the only ones who love quinoa - it's now more popular than tofu! Savvy Vegetarian has lots of yummy quinoa recipes! And tasty tofu recipes - even some with quinoa!
Quinoa is a good source of protein, has a nutty flavor and pleasing texture similar to rice. Quinoa is also full of vitamins and minerals - iron, magnesium, Vit E, potassium, amino acids - and fiber. Unlike wheat or rice, quinoa is a good source of lysine.
Quinoa is adaptable and gluten free. Because of its high protein and (good) fat content, quinoa is a satisfying meal with a few nuts and veggies added.
