Quinoa is an ancient, gluten-free grain that is soft in texture and nutty in flavor. It is one of the few grains to be considered a good source of protein and has significant levels of antioxidants. Because of these high nutritive values, quinoa has grown increasingly popular as a rice substitute and dishes such as quinoa salad can be found on many fine dining menus in addition to family tables.
