In response to Quinoa posted by ERWS61:Quinoa (pronounced "keenwa") is a gluten free grain that is a little like the texture of cous cous. It's about 16 to 20% protein which is pretty high (for a grain). You can purchase it at Whole Foods, Trader Joes or most other health stores. It cooks exactly like rice and I have many great recipes...I'll post a few in the future. For now, cook some up and toss in some sauted peppers and onions, a handful of pine nuts and a little feta cheese. YUM!
