Viva Naturals Organic Royal Quinoa 24 oz

Viva Naturals Organic Royal Quinoa is a delicious and nutritious plant-based protein that serves as a light and fluffy alternative to traditional grains. These larger, rounder, and more flavorful Bolivian quinoa grains are a complete vegan protein source, making them perfect for vegetarians or those seeking a gluten-free substitute. Naturally a source of fiber, iron, and magnesium, this USDA organic and pre-washed quinoa can easily replace rice or pasta in your favorite meals, adding a nourishing and versatile whole grain to your diet.

How to use:
Although our quinoa is pre-rinsed to remove bitter saponins that are naturally found in quinoa, pre-rinsing before use is always a good idea. To start, use a 2:1 liquid to quinoa ratio. Bring to a boil, and reduce to low heat. Keep covered and allow quinoa to simmer for 15 minutes until cooked, or until liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and serve.

1 cup dry = 3 cups cooked

How to enjoy it:

• Serve it as a side dish, or swap rice for quinoa in stir-frys, sushi, and other rice-based recipes.
• Mix up your morning meals with quinoa and milk topped with fruit, cinnamon, or your choice of sweetener.
• Blend dry, toasted quinoa into flour for an alternative to traditional white flour.
