Chef Meg's protein-rich vegetarian recipe is simple to make and tasty to eat!

Although commonly considered a grain, quinoa (pronounced keen-wah) is actually a seed that is rich in protein. It has an interesting texture, often described as fluffy, slightly crunchy, and even creamy. Quinoa is a complete protein source, containing all nine essential amino acids, making it a great choice for vegetarians and those who don't eat a lot of meat.

NOTE: Because quinoa is a seed, it contains more fat and calories than a similar volume of rice or another grain. Full Recipe
