    Quinoa is not only a good source of protein, it is a complete protein which means that it's an excellent source of protein for vegetarians and vegans (and it's the only grain that is like this).
    If you like quinoa, you should try amaranth, millet, teff, and spelt.

    I eat a mostly vegan diet & I make quinoa quite often for the reasons above. You can do ANYTHING w/it. Use it in place of rice, pasta or oats. I use it to make tabbouleh. If I want something sweet, I'll heat it w/soy, almond or coconut milk, add berries, walnuts, ground flax seeds, cinnamon and a smidge of agave nectar. It makes a really hearty breakfast! More and more, quinoa is becoming available at most grocery stores in the grain section.

    I :heart: quinoa, lol!

    I've been wanting to try quinoa but haven't seen it in the grocery store. I may have to order it online as was suggested....
