Yes.

But I’m telling you man, bulgar wheat. Check it out, it’s the grain of the summer.

wheat sounds stodgy, I want to feel good

Thanks everybody! Might make this into a whole series where I ask people on here how/if I should eat things.

I like a tiny bit of the red stuff mixed in with rice.

Quinoa? I’ve barely even met her!

David Lynch made a pretty handy instructional video. I never have amino acids, but having it with broccoli is nice.

I don’t like it but it’s one of the few grains I can eat so have to mix it in. I just sprinkle it into a salad or something.

Yes. Cook it though! Raw will make you sick.

Do you have a rice cooker?

nope. I’m going to put in a saucepan with some water

says 30g uncooked quinoa weighs approx. 80g when cooked so I only need to use 30g that seems very small

We generally get sachets like this rather than cooking plain quinoa

wish there was some way you could learn how to cook with really simple instructions
