With quinoa being a super food and all I’ve really been trying to embrace it in my diet. The only problem is I really don’t like it.. not necessarily the taste, more the texture. It totally creeps out my mouth
So the other day I was at Henry’s doing a little shopping and happened to see a box of Andean Dream quinoa pasta on a bottom shelf (nowhere near other pastas) and it was on sale for .99! I grabbed a box, went right home and cooked it.

It seemed to take a little longer then regular pasta to cook (or maybe I was just hungry) but cooked up fine. It’s definitely thicker then regular spaghetti, more like a noodle you would find in an Asian dish.
The taste though was great. I added a little Earth Balance “butter”, pepper and ate it up. Yum!
I checked Amazon prices but it was way to high for me ($50 for 12 boxes) so I headed back to Henry’s to grab it while it was on sale.
I noticed it was $4.99 regularly (eek) so I bought ten boxes
(hey that’s ten for the price of two!). That should last us until it goes on sale again.
Anyway.. if you see this on sale.. grab a box, I think you’ll like it.
