All you need to know about Quinoa

The Key to Quinoa

We’re always hearing quinoa this and quinoa that. I know we’d all like to pretend we know exactly what it is, but here’s the quick five to help you out a little. 

1. It’s pronounced as “key-new-ah”

2. Quinoa is a seed and not a grain; but can be cooked like one

3. It’s super high in protein but is gluten free

4. It’s from South America and comes in red, black and white

5. It’s completely vegan and vegetarian and almost always organic
