Rice and Quinoa

Cooking Directions | Nutrition Facts | Other Information

Minute® Rice and Quinoa is a blend of four popular gluten free 100% whole grains and is ready in only 10 minutes.  The four grains include:

• Brown Rice – usually brown but can be black, purple, red or a variety of exotic hues.
• Thai Red Rice - also known as Khao Deng, is an ancient grain that has a pleasant and nutty flavor.
• Wild Rice – not technically rice at all but the seed of an aquatic grass.  It has a strong, hearty flavor that goes well with other grains.
• Quinoa (pronounced "KEEN-wah") – is a small, light-colored round grain, similar in appearance to sesame seeds.  It cooks up light and fluffy.  The protein in quinoa is a complete protein as it contains all nine essential amino acids.

This quick cooking whole grain medley is pre-portioned in 4 separate bags for ease of preparation and has a slightly chewy, nutty flavor. Perfect for any meal, even as a wholesome start to the day, this medley is great when eaten with a little olive oil and salt, cooked in meat/vegetable broths or fruit juices.  Make Minute® Rice and Quinoa a versatile recipe staple for your pantry.
