Quinoa aka Keen-wah

Do you all know about this amazing grain, Quinoa? Rice-like but lighter and full of nutrients, it's become my go-to grain. Gluten and wheat-free, it's easy on the tummy, and get this, it has 5 grams of protein per serving, plus fiber, iron, folate, magnesium, and other good stuff.

I admit I'm still working on how to sex it up. It can be a bit dull. Usually I just put a stir-fry over it, preferably a spicy one. I'd like to come up with some ways to eat it plain, though. Maybe just broccoli and a little garlic salt? hmm....here are some other recipe ideas.
