BetterBody Foods Organic Tri-Color Quinoa 3 lb

Overview

BetterBody Foods' tri-color quinoa comes in a 3 lb bag, the largest size in this lineup, aimed at high-volume households and meal preppers who want a rice replacement with 6g of protein per serving.

At 3 lb this is a bulk buy rather than a trial size, positioned as a low-glycemic swap for white or brown rice. The brand's cook method calls for a 1:2 quinoa-to-water ratio, a boil, then a covered simmer, and it says the grains also work in a rice cooker or Instant Pot for hands-off cooking.

• 3 lb (48 oz) organic tri-color quinoa
• Gluten-free, vegan and non-GMO
• 6g plant protein per serving
• Works in a pot, rice cooker or Instant Pot

Who it's for

Fits households that cook quinoa often enough to justify a 3 lb bag, including vegans and vegetarians leaning on it as a protein source. Not the right pick for someone who wants a small bag to try before committing to a large one.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

Rinsing before cooking is recommended, then a 1 cup quinoa to 2 cups water ratio, brought to a boil and simmered covered on medium-low for about 15 to 20 minutes until the water is absorbed. The brand also lists rice cooker and Instant Pot compatibility for a more hands-off method.
