Wanna try it?
Have you tried Quinoa yet? It’s quite a strange little grain or seed, texture wise. I’ve tried it a couple times as an accompaniment to stir fry. The last time, I cooked the quinoa in pineapple juice which was really wonderful. I think I will try it for breakfast next. I see some recipes online that call for cooking the quinoa and mixing it with cooked apples. My idea is to cook it directly with apple juice. Wouldn’t that be easier? Add a bit of cinnamon and whoo hoo! I wonder if it will need some sweetener? A little brown sugar?

Looks like it contains about 6g of protein per serving. (1/4 cup of dry)
