Quinoa-known as the “Mother Grain” in South American culture-dates back to the Incan Empire and is actually a seed, not a grain. Today, we enjoy quinoa for its great taste and nutritional properties. Quinoa is one of nature's complete plant proteins. What this means is that quinoa contains essential amino acids in the right proportions to help support human nutritional needs.
Kirkland Signature Organic Quinoa is cultivated by small-holder farmers in the Andean Mountains, who remain committed to sustainably grown, organic quinoa and continue to honor the farming techniques of their ancestors.
