Ouinoa is one of the world's most popular health foods. These days, you;can find;quinoa and quinoa products all over the world.; It is gluten-free unlike wheat and rice or other grains. It is high in protein and contains all nine essential amino acids. It has a low Glycemic Index, which is good for blood sugar control.


It is also high in fibre, magnesium, Vitamin B, iron, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, vitamin E and other beneficial anti-oxidants. even though technically not a cereal grain, it still counts as a whole-grain food.; There are three main types: red, white and black.
Cooked quinoa seeds become fluffy and creamy yet have a slight crunch. Its idea for great and fuller breakfast, a salad for the lunch and side portion for dinner.
So today I am going to share the recipe of quinoa up with lots of veggies.
