Aww Quinoa pronounced (KEEN-WA). Is an amazing super food. Cooked  and considered the same as cereal grasses(wheat, barley, rye,and oats) it is grouped with these foods. However; Quinoa is actually a seed from Central and South America, the same food family as Swiss Chard, Spinach and Beets. Hey is this a root food, Chakra 1 food???? I will have to do more research.
Quinoa is high in Protein. In fact, it contains all 8 amino acids to form a complete protein. Which is great for athletes such as myself:) Including lysine and Isoleusine, two major forms of antioxidants, greater than berries. Quinoa also contains antioxidant flavonoids (quercetin and kaemferol) and Anti-inflammatory properties, vitamin E, heart healthy magnesium, folate and fiber.
Quinoa can be eaten for breakfast, lunch or dinner making it very versatile. It can also be eaten cold or warmed. It is very bland by itself so be sure to season, season and season...However; you like.
