Using this food reference

The quinoa values are for cooked grain, and the cup comparison is cooked quinoa. Dry quinoa has a different water content and should not be compared using the same weight entry.

Weigh or measure quinoa after cooking for this page's portion comparison. Broth, oil and other ingredients used in a quinoa dish are not automatically included in the plain cooked-grain record.

Match the food before using the numbers

The selected USDA description is Quinoa, cooked. Preparation, water loss, added oil, salt, edible skin, product formulation, and measured portion can change the nutrition of the food you actually eat.
