Simple ways to use organic quinoa This organic quinoa can be used in both hot and cold dishes, making it a flexible ingredient to keep in the kitchen. Try it as a base for grain bowls, as a side dish with roasted vegetables, or as a filling addition to soups and salads. Easy meal ideas Warm bowls with roasted vegetables, greens, and a punchy dressing. Chilled salads with beans, herbs, cucumber, and citrus. Stuffed peppers, squash, or courgettes for a nourishing dinner. Breakfast bowls with fruit, seeds, yoghurt, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Cooking guide for light, fluffy quinoa Rinse the grains before cooking to help remove any natural bitterness. Use one part quinoa to two parts water, bring to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until tender. When the grains are ready, the small germ ring will appear. Leave the pan to stand for a few minutes, then fluff with a fork for the best texture. Helpful cooking tips Toast the grains briefly before adding water for a nuttier flavour. Use stock instead of plain water if you want a richer savoury result. Cool cooked quinoa fully before mixing it into salads or lunch boxes.
