Quinoa
This is Quinoa! Pronounced ( keen-wa )
This is a like rice grain, with an interesting ancient history, and is delicious! It can be cooked with a rice cooker, however, Chistina of Christina Cooks cooks it stovetop. Quinoa is full of all 9 essential amino acids and is a complete protein!
I found it very tasty, is available at Walmart as well. This particular brand is already rinsed but I did it again anyway because it can be somewhat bitter. Bob's Red Mill is another brand, however, I haven't tried his yet, but love all his other products.
It said on the box, can be cooked in a rice cooker, mine is old, but a great kitchen tool, a
Chime-o-matic! It turns off when done! I guess it is now considered an antique! And can be found on Ebay!
A healthful food addition to my new vegetarian diet! I love it! My Sister will try it soon she said!
Enjoy, The Sisters
