There is a reason Quinoa is called a “super grain”. It’s high in fiber and keeps you feeling full for longer. Thus, you tend to binge eat less. It’s gluten free. So, perfectly suitable for those on a gluten free diet. Moreover, it is a good alternative to couscous and a great source of protein compared to some other grains.

There are various ways you can incorporate this super grain in your daily meals. From porridge to pudding, what can’t you make with it?! In the past we’ve shared some of our favourite ways to use it in our diets.
