Summer of Blending - Summer Quinoa Recipe #Vitamix

I love to cook Quinoa for my family. Quinoa is a grain that has ancient origins, dating back over five thousand years to the vast and might Inca civilization of South America. Quinoa was important to the Inca culture, they referred to it as the Mother Grain. We call it the Supergrain of the future because of it's unique qualities. Quinoa is wheat free and gluten free. It is easy to prepare our Quinoa summer recipe using the Vitamix machine.
