Dear Gracy: How long can I keep Quinoa in the fridge?

26 September 2017

Dear Gracy,

I cooked a massive batch of Quinoa this weekend for a dinner party and I have quite a bit left over.
Can I keep Quinoa in the fridge and eat it over the next few days?
How long can I keep Quinoa in the fridge?

Best,
Linda

Dear Linda,

Yes, you can keep Quinoa in the fridge for about 3-4 days and it’s still all good to eat. Cooking Quinoa in a big batch is actually a great idea so it’s easier for you to prepare your quinoa meals throughout the week!

Leftover overnight quinoa, like leftover rice, is actually great to use for Quinoa “Fried Rice” dishes. Stir fry the quinoa in a bit of oil with chopped garlic, soy sauce, egg and anything else your heart desires, and you’ve got yourself a delicious and quick quinoa dish! 😉

Good luck!

Your Superfriend,
