One of the world's healthiest foods, quinoa (pronounced 'keen-wah') contains a perfect balance of all eight essential amino acids and is a great source of protein, making it an increasingly popular food choice for those looking to incorporate 'superfoods' into their everyday diets. Gluten-free, wheat-free, and nutrient-packed, quinoa is ideal for those who are health-conscious, vegetarian and physically active, as well as for those with gluten intolerance, wheat allergies, and other digestive disorders. But that's not all - you can eat quinoa guiltlessly knowing it's free of cholesterol and trans fats. In Quinoa 365, Patricia Green and Carolyn Hemming show you how to use this miraculous superfood in all your favourite dishes.
