This popular food hailing from Peru and Bolivia is actually a seed, and not a grain, making it a great gluten-free grain-like option. Quinoa is in fact related to beets and spinach. With twice the amount of fiber as white rice, all amino acids making it a complete protein, and packed with minerals for healthy bones, it’s no wonder quinoa took over the food scene. It even cooks in under 15 minutes, making it an ideal meal when you’re in a pinch. Great as a side or a main course or salad
