Can You Eat Raw Quinoa In Smoothies?
Yes, you can eat raw quinoa in smoothies. You don’t have to cook quinoa before adding it to your smoothie as it’s already prewashed. However, it’s better to soak the quinoa in water for 15 minutes or overnight before using it in smoothies to make it more easily digestible. Additionally, blending the quinoa in a high-speed blender helps to break down its tough outer layer, making it more pleasant to eat and creating a smoother texture.
