Quinoa Nutrition
Have you heard of Quinoa? (pronounced 'keenwah'), if not, you are missing out.
Quinoa is a wonder grain that originated from the Andean civilization. Quinoa has been a staple of some Central/South American diets for 6000 years, and interest has grown because of their population's very long life span compared to modern western civilization.
The Incas called Quinoa the 'Mother Of All Grains' because it is the ONLY plant source that is a complete protein.
This makes quinoa a superb nutritional addition to a vegetarian/vegan diet.

Quinoa is a gluten free grain (more closely related to beets or spinach than actual grains), very high in protein, essential amino acids, and Iron. It contains 14 grams of protein for every 100 gram serving! When cooked, it has a fluffy texture and acts as a much healthier substitute for rice, couscous, pasta or potatoes.
Did I mention the taste? The light but hearty grain has a mild nutty flavor making it so very versatile and suitable for a myriad of recipes - most everyone who tries it wonders why they waited so long.
