Quinoa: The Superfood

What is Quinoa? Why is this the new craze? Well, it is easy to make, it is stacked with protein, and has great texture for cooking all types of meals--sweet, sour, you name it!

My first time cooking quinoa went really well. For me, I was unsure if I even had the portions right; however, it is really like cooking rice.

How to Cook: Rinse the quinoa 1-2 times, then add water. Quinoa to water ratio is 1:2 cups (for every 1 cup of quinoa, add 2 cups of water).

Ways to Cook: Quinoa can be cooked via rice cooker or by boiling it in hot water for approx. 20 minutes.
