Test Kitchen Tips:
• Serving Suggestion: Serve with assorted toppings, such as reduced fat sour cream, chopped cilantro and guacamole.
• Rinsing quinoa with cold water prior to cooking helps reduce the bitterness that comes from a coating found on the seeds called saponins.
• To cook quinoa, use 2 parts water to 1 part quinoa, so 1 cup of water to cook 1/2 cup dry quinoa.
