Photo of Chenopodium quinoa (Chenopod quinoa)
Chenopodium quinoa - Commonly known as quinoa, is an herbaceous annual. It is a somewhat weedy plant that typically matures in the wild to 3-6’ tall. Although its spinach-like leaves are sometimes eaten as a raw or cooked leaf vegetable or added to various food dishes as an herb flavoring, this plant is primarily grown today as a grain crop for harvest in fall of its tiny edible seeds. Quinoa leaves are medium green, alternate, broad, generally pubescent, smooth to lobed, and lanceolate to triangular. Young leaves may be steamed or sautéed. Tiny, greenish, apetalous flowers bloom in summer in terminal and axillary racemes. Family:Amaranthaceae
