Make Quinoa In Your Instapot

Instapot QUINOA & 3 WAYS TO USE IT

A fast, freezer-friendly whole grain that's ready in minutes

Quinoa is a quick-cooking whole grain, and the Instant Pot makes it even easier — no watching the stove, no guessing when it's done.

HOW TO MAKE IT

1. Add 2 cups quinoa and 2 cups water to the Instapot

2. Cook on the rice setting.

3. Since the Instapot is sealed, you don't need double the water to make up for evaporation like you would on the stovetop — a simple 1:1 ratio is all it takes.

4. Once cooked, portion into freezer containers and freeze for quick use later.

3 WAYS TO USE IT

1. Build a Grain Bowl

Use quinoa as your base, then top it with salad greens, shredded chicken, chickpeas, and your favorite dressing for a fast, balanced meal.

2. Serve as a Side to Grilled Foods

Quinoa's light, fluffy texture makes it an easy side dish alongside anything off the grill.

3. Pair with Your Favorite Chili

Spoon chili over a scoop of quinoa instead of rice for extra protein and a nutty flavor.

No matter how you use it, quinoa is a delicious whole grain that cooks quickly — and having a freezer stash on hand means a healthy grain is never more than a few minutes away.
