Cooking with Quinoa

"This tiny gluten-free grain offers big benefits.
A marvelous thing about going gluten free is that it
encourages exploration into the delicious, nutritious
world of alternative grains and seeds. And in that
world, quinoa (pronounced KEEN wah) is a shining star.
This ancient food is a complete protein that contains
all essential amino acids, making it a meat substitute.
What's more, it offers twice the protein of most cereal
grains, along with impressive amounts of fiber, calcium,
iron, magnesium, phosphorus and riboflavin. Quinoa's
slow-releasing complex carbs keep you fuller longer and
help ward off sugar cravings.)"
