Quinoa is often referred to as a grain but it is a seed. Quinoa can easily be used as a substitute for rice especially for people suffering with diabetes or going through a weight management program. One fourth cup of quinoa has more than twice the amount of protein for the same serving of rice.

Quinoa cooks in water at a ratio of 2:1, i.e. 2 cups of water for 1 cup of quinoa. It needs 12-15 minutes to low heat after being brought to boil once.
