If a momma Qunioa and a daddy Quinoa had a baby they would name it Kaniwa...isn't that simply adorable!? This little grain has many other nicknames including Quechua, Canahua, and Baby Quinoa (because it looks and tastes similar to its botanical relative: Quinoa). Not only that, it cooks up with a crunchy texture and makes a nutrient rich, delicious super food. Turn these into Burgers and you have a beautiful main course or side dish! Each of the 9 servings are only 135 calories, 14g net carbs and 7g protein. I can't wait for you to try this grain from Pereg, visit www.pereg-gourmet.com for more information and where to buy! :)
