Hey everyone. Just wanted to ask... what brands of Quinoa and Couscous do you buy? Which one in your opinion do you all like best?

I have tried both and like them a lot.

Thanks!

  • I am a fan of the 'rice select' brand pearl multi colored couscous. I get it at my local Kroger. My kids love it too. As far as the quinoa I get whatever brand us at Costco, I love to make it with veggie broth and the add a little braggs amino acids. Love!!

    For the lazy days Near East. I think that is the brand. I also have some quinoa that is in a bag, but I have not tried it yet.

    I buy my quinoa in bulk at an organic co-op. They carry white/natural, red and black. I much prefer it to couscous which is a pasta, whereas quinoa is a seed so it's much more nutritious.

    ETA: Try it for breakfast - it's great in place of other hot cereals like oatmeal.

    For quinoa, I buy Oxfam's bio fair-trade. Couscous, I buy whatever I get in my supermarket.
