I have a little secret. Quinoa is not really a grain. It’s a seed. But it looks, tastes and feels like a grain, and everyone is calling it a ‘super grain’ so I think we are OK to call it that too. Whether you want to call it a seed or a grain is really up to you, but I strongly recommend you try the recipes on EatSavvy this month. They are seriously super!
I am a relatively new fan of quinoa so I was pleasantly surprised when our food editor, Denise Smith rounded up these four very different ways to enjoy it. I didn’t know how diverse this little super food was but I am quite sure my family will enjoy each one of the recipes—from a hot steamy morning cereal to a hearty chili on a cold winter night. I wish I knew about the warm quinoa with fruit when my kids were younger as I know I would have used that as an option for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Try this protein-rich ingredient in your meals this week—it will make you feel good.
