The mild flavor of quinoa makes it ideal for pilafs, soups and salads, and it takes very little time to prepare. It’s a nutritious alternative to Couscous and white rice in many recipes. Why bring a boring side to your next potluck? Mix quinoa with dried fruits and spices for a simple yet exotic salad. Quinoa is a wonderful source of complete protein and a good source of dietary fiber. Naturally gluten free, this powerful little grain is especially ideal for those following a gluten free, vegan or vegetarian diet. Our quinoa has been thoroughly rinsed and air dried to remove the naturally occurring bitter saponins.
