1 lb of Certified Organic Quinoa from Peru.
This ancient grain is related to Amaranth and is packed with health benefits. It's a complete protein with all 9 essential amino acids and rich with fiber, iron, magnesium, and folate. It's a fluffy and nutty grain that cooks quickly (in about 15 minutes) and is super versatile.
PRO tip- Rinse for 1 minute in a fine mesh strainer, or until the water runs clear. This helps to break down the plants natural defense that make it bitter and make it easier to digest and absorb nutrients. Toast in a bit of ghee or oil before cooking to increase the nutty flavor.
