quinoa? with an upward inflection.
i was in the bulk part of the co-op and let the lever open for too long. the outcome was 10 cups of quinoa. ha. so i'm finding some good recipes and if you have some too please please comment them.
i use it in rice or as rice like in burritos/stir-fry dishes, and soups but never got any more creative than that. so bring it on!
what is quinoa? -pronounced KEEN wah-: "Quinoa is an especially valuable super food for vegetarians and vegans who are concerned about getting enough protein in their diets." it's a green, from the same family of leafy greens as spinach, not a grain. "Quinoa contains all nine essential amino acids, making it a "complete" protein without the need to combine it with other grains or legumes or meats. High in antioxidants, fiber, and minerals, quinoa provides a wide range of health benefits, including helping to promote weight loss, lower cholesterol and blood pressure, and prevent migraines. Quinoa is gluten-free and considered easy to digest." some say it's flavorless, but i think it has nice hint of flavor. a little chewy sort of like couscous. i'm not sure about WI but in CA you can it is almost everywhere.
1part Quinoa 2parts water. cook together about 15min.
what's your favorite way to eat quinoa?
