Quinoa is a grain that is wheat free and gluten free, but is big on taste! The ratio is 2 cups water to 1 cup quinoa (pronounced keen-wah). It has a nutty flavor and when paired with apples is a very filling. An alternative to oatmeal, and good for someone who is allergic to wheat. Get it at the health food section of grocery store.
