Quinoa is a grain that's now a very popular alternative to rice or cous cous. It cooks in the same way, taking 10-15 minutes in boiling water to bring out a soft, fluffy consistency. Serve quinoa wherever rice or cous cous can be used: with curries, tagines and casseroles, or in salads.

Nutritional Benefits of Quinoa

• Quinoa is packed with protein - typically 5x as much protein as rice.
• It's a "complete protein" containing all essential amino acids.
• High in fibre.
• High in minerals including iron, calcium and potassium.
• Quinoa also has a low glycemic index - meaning that it releases its energy slowly throughout the day, keeping you fuller for longer.
• Quinoa is much better than rice in all of the above respects. Can be used as an alternative to rice.
