Quinoa! I love quinoa. When i first
tasted it, I wasn't sure how i would feel. However after time and
practice cooking the ancient grain, I have figured out why it is bitter.Rinsing quinoa improves the taste and takes aways the bitterness.
Quinoa is a high quality food.
It also can be used as a baby cereal. Therefore , it is great for infants who hould stay away from wheat and gluten.
My
favourite way to use quinoa is as hot cereal with brown sugar and
cinammon. IT tastes so good. It also nice waking up to a hot breakfast
on a cold morning. It is great for me too as i am still breastfeeding. I
can also share with my little one (without the sugar and cinnamon of
course0
My little guy does not mind it all at but i think he prefers
rice cereal right now. He likes to try new foods. But his favourite is
sweet potato and rice cereal and banana. I am so excited to embark on
this gluten free, eco friendly lifestyle with my little man. As I write
this, my little guy has decided he wants a drink. ''

recommend rinsing even if the package says pre -rinsed.

3) drain quiona and it s ready to enjoy
