I'm sure you knew this one was coming -- you've only seen the confetti-like pearly grains (that are technically not grains, but it's just so weird to say confetti-like pearly chenopods) accessorizing my dinner plates for the last three months. All I have to say is this: Once you've tried quinoa, you will forever question your couscous and rice habit -- well, I guess I can't speak for you, but those were the two default starches on the dinner plate that I was raised with. Quinoa is a complete protein (which is why it's so popular among vegetarians), it's gluten-free (ditto parents of children with wheat allergies) and so freaking delicious (ditto people who like freaking delicious things).
