Tired of that same old rice pilaf? Expand your horizons; experiment with quinoa (pronounced ‘kin,wa). Cooked quinoa has a light, fluffy texture. It makes an excellent alternative to rice in hot or cold side dishes and entrées. It is also a nutrition powerhouse. One half-cup of cooked quinoa provides a significant amount of several key nutrients including protein, folate, iron, magnesium and zinc.
