Quinoa

Quinoa is a type of grain that has gained popularity in recent years because of its high nutrient content. It is often called a 'superfood' because it is a complete protein, meaning it contains all nine essential amino acids. Quinoa is also high in fiber, containing both soluble and insoluble fibers which can improve digestion and lower cholesterol levels. Additionally, it is a good source of minerals such as magnesium, iron, and zinc. Adding fat to quinoa can enhance the absorption of these nutrients.
