Quinoa

Quinoa is an ancient grain that was known as “the gold of the Incas”. It’s rich in protein and cooks up into a fluffy and slightly crunchy texture. While some consider quinoa a “power food,” the gluten-free population embraces it as a grain that conforms to their dietary needs. Restaurants are serving quinoa in a variety of preps.
