Quinoa Salad Recipe
Filed in archive Food Allergies by ruth on September 23, 2007
I briefly mentioned quinoa in a recent entry, as an alternative to wheat. I probed a bit more and discovered that it is actually not a cereal. Its leaves are also eaten as a leaf vegetable, although less popular and available. It has become highly appreciated for its high protein content, and is said to contain a balanced set of essential amino acids for humans. In fact, quinoa is being considered as a possible crop in NASA's Controlled Ecological Life Support System for long-duration manned spaceflights!

Here's a video of Chef Oren showing how to prepare a quinoa salad, courtesy of Mark's Daily Apple:
