Hi, All I can tell you is that quinoa was a great staple for my daughter in the bad times (and you might recall her bad times were rather horrible!). Once she was able to eat a bit, she was able to eat quinoa on its own, the same way as cooked white rice - and I cooked it extra soft, the same way I would cook rice for her. We ate quinoa before she got ibs, so luckily it wasn't something she had to get used to, in her case. My whole family likes quinoa, plain or otherwise, and one of my daughter's favorite ways to eat it is plain w/a little Bragg's liquid aminos or a little soy sauce. Some people apparently cook it really soupy and use it like a breakfast porridge, but we use it as a dinner thing. I've also used it in soups and as a grain salad (although I imagine one's ibs should probably be pretty stable before you try it that way). kem (daughter w/ibs-d dx)
