Tiny Hero Golden Quinoa, 16 oz. Bag (6 Count), Non-GMO Verified, Canadian Grown, Complete Protein Whole Grain, Gluten Free, Kosher, Prewashed Ready to Cook

Delicious & easy to make!This type of quinoa is a lot easier to cook then other brands, as it cooks like pasta and it’s pre-washed! You do need a fine mesh strainer though to drain the quinoa without losing some down the sink. I found this quinoa to have more taste then others as well, it has a nuttier taste to it. I ate it plain the first time to try it out, but plan to test out some other recipes with this quinoa.

This quinoa is pretty great. It cooks a little differently that most quinoa brands I've had in the past, but the sticky texture is well worth it. Be sure to read the directions on the back before you try cooking it like normal, you're supposed to cook it like pasta for best results.

As a big quinoa fan I thought I would give this new brand a try. Wow was I surprised! Hands down now my favorite quinoa. The rich flavor and robust texture was great and my guests all asked about it. Must admit the price is excellent giving the quality. When is this going to be available in local stores?

Great product -- my favorite feature is the "pre-washed"-ness. I've wanted to get into quinoa before, but... have you ever tried to wash raw quinoa and drain the water? They're so small, it's totally ridiculous trying to drain out the water without dumping out a lot of quinoa too. Draining after cooking is so much easier!

Delicious, nutritious quinoa right to my door. What could be better?

This quinoa is very delicious. The product is marketed as a unique quinoa that has a nuttier, richer flavor and a better texture. I did notice a difference in flavor. I toasted the quinoa in a dry pan with a little butter until it was fragrant before adding the water to cook it, and it came out delicious at the end! The packaging claims it has more a "rice like" texture than traditional quinoa; to me, it didn't seem that much different than other quinoa brands I've cooked. It was a good texture, just not much different. The main difference is the ease. Traditional quinoa has to be cooked with a specific amount of water, simmered for a certain amount of time until it soaks up all the water, just like rice, and can be messed up just like rice. But this brand allows you to cook it more like pasta (add a large amount of water, add the quinoa, boil, then drain the excess water.) I did not cook mine like that, but it would be nice having the option.An easy way to cook quinoa if you have an Instant pot: just remember 1: 1 cup water, 1 cup quinoa, for 1 minute on manual. It came out perfect!

I have here at my desk for review the Tiny Hero Golden Quinoa, 16 Ounce package. This quinoa is grown in Canada, is pre-washed, non GMO, gluten free, kosher, and a 100% whole grain. Information on the bag tells me that a serving of this quinoa contains 6g of protein, 18% of my daily requirement for protein.The Internet provides much useful information about quinoa. It is an ancient grain used by the Incas and has many health benefits including the fact that it is fiber rich, a complete protein, high in antioxidants, with many other health benefits and it tastes good, at least to me. It does have a slight nut like flavor, as mentioned on the quinoa package.I wanted a single serving of the quinoa so I put one cup of water into a pan and brought the water to a boil. Once the water was boiling, I emptied ¼ cup of the quinoa into the pan, reduced the heat, and let it boil for fifteen minutes. At the end of that time I took the pan off the stove and covered it for five minutes. Now all the water was gone; the quinoa did not need to be strained. I spooned the quinoa into a bowl and ate some. It had a bland, somewhat nutty flavor. I decided to add a bit of sea salt and that improved the taste considerably.Quinoa is a wholesome food and an excellent side dish or can be eaten like a breakfast cereal. Tiny Hero has made it easy for us to include quinoa in our diet. Recommended

I've long read about and experienced the value of reducing the amount of meat-based protein in a healthy diet. Quinoa is an easy and convenient way to get plant-based protein which is much healthier. Better for you, better for the planet. I grew up a meat and potatoes man and have learned to eat more leafy greens, vegetables, nuts, hummus and now quinoa. I rarely eat red meat and I feel healthier and lighter. So this product is a nice addition to a better diet. I don't have a great of experience in cooking quinoa so when the makers of the product compared it to rice, it threw my expectations off. While rice puffs up and absorbs liquid, quinoa tends to hold its consistency and is cooked until tender. I made the mistake of pouring the quinoa in a bowl and adding four cups of boiling water over it and it wasn't quite done after fifteen minutes.So, Add the quinoa to the boiling water to get better results which I did the second time I tried it and the quinoa cooked up nicely.The best way to get the most out of a product like this is to experiment. Add to soups or use it like you would rice .. etc. Don't like it by itself? Try it sprinkled with Frank's hot sauce or add your favorite herbs to it. The third time I cooked it, I roasted some green peppers, placed them over the cooked quinoa, and squeezed lime juice over it. Very good. If your children won't eat it, get creative. There all kinds of quinoa recipes out there to change their opinion.This brand has a nice, slightly nutty flavor. It is convenient to cook and makes a healthy side dish. Two Thumbs Up!
