Quinoa question

Does anyone happen to know how big of a nutritional difference 1/4 cup of uncooked quinoa is compared to 1/4 cup cooked? Does it swell quite a bit? I made some Eden quinoa - organic whole grain and all I can find is the value of it uncooked. I know that rice is a big difference, but what about quinoa? (just cooked it in water)

    It swells a lot! I think 1/4 cup dry quinoa makes about 1 cup of cooked quinoa.
