How to Cook Quinoa

January 27, 2012

Quinoa is an ancient grain with South American origins. And technically, it’s not a grain at all, but a member of the spinach and beet family. It’s also a nutritional powerhouse: it contains all 8 amino acids making it a complete and rich source of protein, it’s high in iron, B vitamins, zinc, potassium, calcium, and vitamin E. Plus it is gluten free and easy to digest.
