Tips

Quinoa typically is found in the rice and pasta section of supermarkets. Rinse well before cooking to remove the natural bitter coating, if it is not pre-washed.

Quinoa can be cooked the day before and stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator, if desired.

For gluten free preparation, confirm all recipe ingredients are gluten free by reading product labels each time you make this recipe.
