(More customer reviews)I had heard so many great things about the quinoa "supergrain," which was considered to be the mother of all grains by the ancient Incas. However, I was a bit skeptical of Seeds of Change products due to past experience -- they were a bit bland and often resembled bird seed! Still I was intrigued enough to purchase and now am well satisfied. It's easy to prepare -- you just have to simmer it a while after bringing the grain / water mix to the boiling point. Altogether it shouldn't take you longer than a half hour (microwave instructions are also available on the package, but you may lose nutritional value that way). Once the 5.5 oz. package is prepared, I got at least three full servings out of it, but your results may vary according to your appetite. Since you get a large seasoning package in each box, I would caution the cook to use about half of that. It does contain wasabi or horseradish so be advised! We even mixed it with wild rice for Thanksgiving. This Cuzco mix also includes brown rice and millet, so you really get a tasty and nutritious mix. (Quinoa is supposed to contain all of the essential amino acids). While the instructions tell you to first saute' or brown the grains in a pan with oil, this step isn't necessary (we still added the extra-virgin olive oil to the water to prepare though). Seeds of Change should be proud -- so don't let this mighty quinoa wind pass you by. Embrace the change to supergrains!!
