    Try boiling it swansons chicken broth instead of water. It adds a little flavour.

    Well I remember you saying it tasted like crap when you didn't rinse it. Are you concerned about washing the vitamins away?

    I'll do the next batch unwashed and report back GGR.. just for you.

    Ahh thank you. I first found these b4 they were provided pre washed. i didnot pre rinse and they didn't taste very good. Never been back but you all reporting how more a tasteful. (I don't read directions and I prefer to save as much time prepping meals. It's a lifestyle thing for me. Rather be doing other things then cooking. Lol.

    Use veggie stock or chicken stock instead of water. add in some frozen organic veggie blend right at the end and drizzle with balsamic vinegar to taste. Yummy.

    Or on top of salads.
    Been eating chicken, spinach and quinoa salads all weak

    Took the words out of my mouth. Would love to see some good quinoa recipes.

    Ok GGR, no wash, all good. Tastes the same to me as last night when rinsed.

    When this stuff first showed on shelves it was NOT Available pre washed. I was introduced to this grain prolly 5 or 6 years ago by a BB.

    I don't read directions so didn't taste so good. I never finished the bag and never looked back....until now.

    Rinse it anyway people. You are going to get a bad batch and its going to be very bitter.
