15 Quinoa Recipes Your Kids Will Actually Eat

"

A trendy “supergrain” that’s become all the rage in recent years, quinoa is one of the most popular healthy foods of the moment. It’s easy to make, (if you can cook pasta, you can cook quinoa), and is packed with nutrients. It has 8 grams of protein per cup; is high in fiber, iron, magnesium, antioxidants and is gluten-free. There’s a reason it’s become so popular with health food junkies, and these recipes are so tasty that your kids won’t realize they’re eating something that’s good for them.
