QUICK TO COOK - QUINOA

Quinoa (kin-wa) - a grain from the Andes Mountains in South America is gaining popularity all over the world for its versatility, ease of preparation and super high protein content.

Traditionally, The Incas cultivated this ancient grain, along with corn and potatoes, as a staple food for their people.

We love it's lightness and sweet, nutty flavour and have welcomed it lovingly into our home.

Quinoa is a complete protein, is easily digested and a rich, balanced source of nutrients. Try some today.
