SHEARCHING FOR QUINOA

SO WHERE IN THE STORE IS THIS FOUND OR DO YOU HAVE TO ORDER IT OR WHAT?  TASTE LIKE? RICE?  THANKS FOR ALL RESPONCES!!!

It cooks like rice, but as for the flavor it's actually flavorless. It's really good at picking up any seasoning you are adding to it. Look at my blog for some recipes.

it's normally sold in organic food markets like whole foods. Sometimes  it can be bought at regular supermarkets and would be found around the grains. gl

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!  IVE ASKED AROUND THE STORES HERE IN CENTRAL TEXAS AND PPL LOOK SO CONFUSED WHEN I ASK ITS UNREAL!!  I WILL SEARCH MORE DOES IT HAVE PROTEIN IN IT? LISAP

It's packed with protein, I love it! It cooks like was but has much of the same nutritional value as a bean, but with a lot more protein.  If you can't find it in stores you can buy it online.

I purchased mine just 2 days ago at Bob's Redmill website(bobsredmill.com).  It was $11.43 for 26oz. They have lots of whole grains and dried beans etc.  I also purchased steel cut oats and couscous.
I've never tried it(quinoa) before either, but I've heard about the high protein content.  Go to Foodnetwork.com and put quinoa in the search engine there.  Lots of recipes, some healthy some not so healthy, but take a glance at how it is basically prepared.  I like some of the salad ideas I've seen there.

I've seen it in health food stores.

Good Luck,

Try some bulk food stores?

found it thank you to all of you!!  lisap

I love quinoa - I get mine at Wal-mart superstores.  Here in Arizona they carry the Bob's Redmill variety, it is in the "health food" section. 

I find that instead of using jus****er if you use vegetable stock, chicken stock or beef stock it really kicks up the flavor of the quinoa.  If you are looking to have a cold side dish try cooking your quinoa and letting it cool, then dice up some of  your favorite veggies and mix them in.  I use pico de gallo (chopped tomatoes, onions and parsley).  Any way you make it YUMMMMMMMM!
