Quinoa is a plant that is grown for its edible seeds. It is not a cereal and is similar to the spinach family. This plant grows in South America and its seeds are similar to rice. Quinoa is one of the oldest foods in the world, with Peru as the source. Quinoa seeds are rich in protein, amino acids, phosphorus, iron and omega. And also contain a percentage of magnesium, potassium and fiber. The vegetable protein of this grain is far better than animal protein and can be a great substitute for vegetarians or those who do not eat red meat for any reason.
