Highlights:
Black quinoa is a crunchier and more flavorful counterpart of white quinoa but still as useful and versatile. It's packed with protein and plenty of nutritious goodness and you can use it not only in place of rice, lentils, pulses, pasta and others.

Overview:
Black quinoa is a very good source of protein. It is highly beneficial, especially for lactose intolerants who can't consume dairy products. Vegetarians can have quinoa as a replacement for meat products. As mentioned above, Black Quinoa is low in calories and has high fiber content.

Preparation Information:
Quinoa has a lovely nutty flavor, and it can boil in less than 20 minutes, so it’s a great alternative to pasta or rice for a quick meal. Use quinoa just as you would any other grain, like rice or barley. It makes a fantastic side dish for almost any meal, especially if cooked with broth instead of water, and add a bay leaf to the pot. It can also be used in breakfast porridges and salads.
