Quinoa is a seed which is related to the spinach family, although it appears and tastes like a grain when cooked.  It is higher in iron, calcium, copper, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, manganese and zinc than barley, wheat or corn. 

It is high in fibre and contains all 9 essential amino acids, which are required by the body as building blocks for muscles. 

It is therefore a superb substitute for meat.  The protein quality and quantity in quinoa seed is often reported to be better than the more common cereal grains.
