Ancient Harvest Quinoa Flakes cook up into a hearty hot cereal. They taste great on their own, sweetened or with butter. It cooks very fast, which is a definite plus. Just don't expect a texture like you'd get with whole quinoa. It's more a mush like well cooked cornmeal, but it's higher in protein.

For those who can't eat gluten or are allergic to wheat as I am, this makes a great substitute for Cream of Wheat. Actually I prefer the taste of the quinoa flakes.

BTW, I was happy to find it here at this price since the few times I was able to buy it at the store it was $5.99 per box.

I love these quinoa flakes...they are relatively easy to make (I just cook them in the microwave. They have a very unique, kind of nutty taste (I guess like quinoa) and can be made thick or thin. It has the texture of grits or cream of wheat and, like quinoa, is a great source of protein...and it's gluten free. I have served this for friends at a brunch and they loved it. I sometimes put warmed fruit (microwaved frozen berries) in it...and it is a great treat. Highly recommended and a great deal. Also, the boxes came with a very long shelf life, but I am sure that they will be gobbled up fairly soon.

When I first tasted quinoa flakes made as a hot cereal, I found them really bland. As I continued making the cereal, I found that this wasn't a bad thing but a completely blank canvas for me to create whatever flavor I wanted. It mixes well with honey as well as a combination of ginger and cinnamon. The quinoa flakes have a great texture, and the amount of water I use determines the thickness of the cereal. I haven't made muffins with the quinoa flakes yet, but there's a recipe provided on the box. For anyone eating a gluten-free or reduced gluten diet, I would definitely recommend this product. It's a great value for such a healthy, versatile food.
