Where do you buy quinoa? (organic, meals, Southern, grocery store)

In what section of the grocery store? What's it next to?

Look in your store's organic section or next to the flours and grains (like corn meal/polenta, etc.)

also, often near the rice. (Look away from the uncle bens, and closer to the Jasmin or Basmati)

FYI, Trader Joes sells it, and at a better price than most places...

In my Stop and shop it's located in the rice section

Costco sells a nice big bag as well (in the rice/beans/flour section).

I eat just about anything. But to me, quinoa is just blah. And my husband, who WILL eat anything, really dislikes it. I made it with red beans and plenty of sauteed onions and garlic, still blah.

I found it really blah, too - even wiith spices and veggies/beans.

^^^ NOT true!!!
You should try warm and nutty cinnamon quinoa (with fresh berries, cinnamon and honey!)
or Southern style with black beans, corn, lime, and cilantro
or with spinach, pesto and feta cheese
or add to your soups, or make casserole, make a Winter salad with squash, pears and almonds and serve warm...
There are many delicious recipes for quinoa.
When you think about ... rice does not have much taste either, but you can make so many tasty meals with it

Whole Foods has a couple of varieties under their 365 Everyday (whatever their generic is) brand.
